French Ligue 1 club Nantes has honored Super Eagles forward Moses Simon as their Player of the Month for August.
Simon has made an explosive start to the 2023/24 Ligue 1 season, featuring in all of Nantes’ matches. Although his debut game was subdued, he quickly turned things around with standout performances in subsequent fixtures. In their second game of the season against Auxerre, the 29-year-old forward scored the opening goal in a 2-0 victory. He continued his impressive form with another goal in a 3-1 win over Montpellier.
The accolade was presented to Simon just before Nantes’ match against Reims on Sunday. Despite registering an assist in the game, Nantes suffered their first loss of the season, falling 2-1.
Simon has been a key player for Nantes over the past three seasons. After a strong start last season, his performance dipped, but he has begun this season in excellent form, with hopes that he will maintain this momentum and help Nantes secure a spot in continental competitions.
