Inter Milan have completed the loan move of Nigeria forward Victor Moses from Chelsea after the player endured an injury laden campaign.
This move was sanctioned by Chelsea boss Lampard who may have wanted to ascertain the player’s form, game perception and mental readiness for Chelsea football club in view of the player possibly returning to the club in the summer.
This was necessary to make by the new Chelsea gaffer who couldn’t assess the player due to injury he had in the long run just like he did for couple of loan players like Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham (at Aston Villa) and defender Fikayo Tomori (Derby County).
With the move, eyes will be on the player Moses as contemplation of how to spend and who to sign continues to form the gist at Stamford Bridge.
Following, Victor Moses move to Inter Milan, we evaluate the three major implications why this move should be taking into consideration.
Reunion With Antonio Conte
It’s believed that Moses, move to Inter was masterminded by former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte.
The Italian was used to the Nigerian way back at the Bridge as both personnel (Moses and Conte) played a decent role to Chelsea’s League triumph some season ago.
This would be a good merge between the two as Conte loves Moses interplay on the pitch. We’ve seen how both individual fared working together on the Chelsea camp. So expect such manager-player relationship between Antonio Conte and Victor Moses to reflect positively on the pitch for Inter.
We all know that Conte is likely to deploy him in the right wing back role owing to his 3-4-3 formation as we saw from Conte during his days at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea even as the Italian side hopes to make do of the Nigerians quality to the maximum along in the season at San Siro.
International Renaissance for the player
The player may have retired from the National team following some mix-up within the Nigerian football scene.
This may have (NFF) the Nigerian Football Federation firmly involved and aware of the major scenario (issues) as a player of his quality quit the Super Eagles as the Nigeria National team is fondly called only at aged 27 (years).
This was a bad one and painted a wrong picture on the Nigerian hemisphere aftermath of their involvement in the World Cup 2018 in Russia.
A career revival at Inter would park up a debate among the Nigerian sect as his move would have raise eyebrows and suggestion in the mind of soccer loving Nigerians with respect to a Super Eagles return.
Boost For Inter’s Aspiration
Inter Milan are in the running for the serie A title with arch-rivals Juventus, trailing the current champions
Juventus in second place in the League standing.
With the talent of Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku up front, the Conte led side have got a (possible) say in the title race.
This is achievable, despite the obvious quality that the Juventus side have got in Paulo Dybala and main man Cristiano Ronaldo.
But Moses signing is a welcome development as he would bolster Inter squad in the season.
This he will do offering the needed flair and width to the Inter side as we have seen during his days at Chelsea in collaboration with Italian manager Antonio Conte. This would be a good one for the Italian clubs in their quest to win at least a title this season.
