Nigerian winger Moses Simon has completed a move to newly-promoted Ligue 1 side Paris FC from FC Nantes, Afrosport reports.

The 29-year-old joins the capital club in a deal reportedly worth €7 million and has signed a contract that runs until 2028.

Simon, who made the switch to France from Spanish outfit Levante in 2019, becomes a marquee signing for Paris FC as they prepare for their debut season in the French top flight. The club sees the experienced Nigerian international as a key figure in their bid to make a strong impression among Ligue 1’s elite.

The highly energetic winger expressed delight after completing the move, and said he is looking forward to the new project.

“Happy to join Paris FC, an ambitious project, a new page to write, and the desire to get involved for the club and the supporters,” Moses said. “Looking forward to experiencing this season with you. Thank you for your trust”.

The winger ended the 2024-25 season with eight goals and ten assists, helping Nantes finish six points above the relegation zone.

During his time at the club, Simon played a pivotal role in their fight for survival and was influential in back-to-back Coupe de France final appearances in 2022 and 2023.

He was instrumental in Nantes’ 2022 cup triumph over OGC Nice, securing the club’s fourth title in the competition.
