Nantes winger Moses Simon has emerged as the top assist provider in the French Ligue 1 in the current campaign.
The 29-year-old's pace, dribbling, and creativity have been evident, outperforming some of the high-profile players in France.
With seven assists to his name, the Super Eagles star is level with Joao Neves of Paris Saint-Germain, ahead of Rayan Cherki, Gaetan Perrin, and Ludovic Blas, who are all tied on six assists.

Moses Simon (Nantes) - 7
Joao Neves (PSG) - 7
Rayan Cherki (Lyon) - 6
Gaetan Perrin (Auxerre) - 6
