Former Nigerian international Ifeanyi Udeze has hailed Moses Simon as a legend at Nantes following his move away from the Yellow Canaries.

Simon recently signed for newly promoted Ligue 1 side Paris FC after spending six years at Nantes.

The 29-year-old signed a three-year deal with the club based in the French capital following their promotion to the top flight for the first time since the 1978–1979 season.

In a chat with Brila FM, Udeze described the Super Eagles winger as a legend for the French club.

“He is a legend at Nantes,” Udeze said on Brila FM’s Sport 360.

“After spending six years at the club? For me, he is a legend.”

Simon had an impressive campaign with Nantes last season, registering eight goals and 10 assists in 32 competitive appearances.
