Moses Simon Ready To Return For Marseille Clash – Nantes Boss

Nantes manager Antoine Kombouaré has confirmed that Moses Simon is fit to play in Sunday’s Ligue 1 match against Olympique Marseille.

The Nigerian winger missed Nantes’ 3-1 away defeat to Strasbourg last week due to a minor knee injury but resumed training this week and is ready to return.

“Moses Simon is back with us. He had a minor knee issue,” Kombouaré announced during a press conference.

Simon, 29, has scored twice in eight league appearances for the Canaries this season. Nantes currently sit 12th in the Ligue 1 standings with 10 points from nine games.

Simon’s recovery is also a welcome boost for Nigeria as they prepare for their upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
