Championship side, Luton Town, have confirmed the signing of former Nigeria international, Victor Moses, on a permanent deal, subject to international clearance.
The 33-year-old winger joins the Hatters after parting ways with Russian club Spartak Moscow earlier this summer, following the expiration of his contract.
Moses brings a wealth of experience to the club, having previously played for top European sides including Wigan Athletic, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Inter Milan.
Moses was a key member of the Chelsea squad that won the UEFA Europa League in the 2012/13 season under manager Rafa Benitez.
Expressing his enthusiasm about the move, Victor Moses said, “I’m looking forward to it. I had a few offers from Europe, but I told my agent that I set my mind on staying here, and here we are. I’m very pleased and honoured to be at this club, and I just can’t wait to get going.”
He added that conversations with Luton Town’s head coach, Rob Edwards, and the club’s directors influenced his decision. “They told me the plan and the history of the club, and I just want to be part of the success. I want to come here, enjoy my football, work hard for the club and the team, and get back to where we belong in the Premier League.”
Luton Town manager Rob Edwards expressed excitement about Moses’ arrival, saying, “We think he’s someone who can provide some really good competition for us.”
Moses got a taste of his new team during a behind-closed-doors match last week.
The addition of Moses comes at a crucial time for Luton, who have struggled in the Championship with only one point from four games this season.
