Nigeria’s Moses Simon Dreams To Play In EPL, Says It’s Most Followed League In World

Nigerian Forward , Moses Simon, has expressed his desire to play in the English Premier League as he claimed to have missed out on a move to an English club.

“I have strong desire to play in the EPL.
“This is my dream, but things happen in football and I believe everything is for my good. When it is time, it is time. I believe in destiny.
“Talking about offers from other Premier League clubs, I think my manager is in the best position to handle the business of transfer or offers that comes to my table. Mine is to play football and I leave my manager to handle that aspect for me.
