Paris FC Push for Moses Simon Amid Uncertain Future at Nantes
Paris FC are reportedly making serious moves to sign Super Eagles winger Moses Simon from FC Nantes this summer, according to a report by CompleteSports.com.
With only one year left on his current deal and no contract extension in sight, Simon’s time with the Canaries appears to be ticking down. The 29-year-old, known for his explosive pace and creative playmaking, has also attracted interest from Everton, Olympique Lyon, and Olympique Marseille.
However, sources suggest Simon is currently pursuing French nationality, which could give Paris FC an edge in negotiations. Staying in France would not only ease that process but allow him to remain in a league where he’s thrived since 2019.
🏃♂️ A Key Season for Moses Simon
Simon had an impressive run last season in Ligue 1, racking up:
⚽ 8 goals
🎯 9 assists
📅 32 league appearances
His consistent performance and versatility — able to play on either wing — have made him a fan favorite at Nantes since joining from Levante in 2019 (initially on loan, before signing permanently in 2020).
Now, with Nantes seemingly unwilling to commit long-term, Simon may be ready for a fresh chapter.
💬 Opinion: A Bold Move or a Step Back?
While Paris FC doesn’t carry the same prestige as Lyon or Marseille, the club has ambitious plans and could offer Simon a key leadership role in their project. For a player nearing 30, that stability — plus staying in France — could be more valuable than a flashier move.
If Simon wants to cement his legacy in French football, lead from the front, and still remain close to the national team spotlight, Paris FC may actually be the smart move.
