Victor Moses Has Proved Critics Wrong - Kanu Nwankwo

Nwankwo Kanu has backed his Victor Moses to win this year's CAF Player of the Year accolade. Moses has enjoyed his best season with Chelsea, who are the favourites to win this season's English Premier League (EPL) title.
Kanu a former Arsenal star feels that the defender-cum-midfielder faces stiff competition from Gabonese Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Senegalese Sadio Mane.


He said “Moses has proved critics wrong. It is now left for CAF to do their rating, as for me, he deserves the 2017 CAF award. Although the season is still on and no one can tell what future will be. The likes of Aubameyang and Sadio Mane are dangerous to compete with but I still have a strong belief in the Nigeria forward. Despite playing out of position at Chelsea, he finds it easy to break opponents’ defence with ease and if he keeps this fitness alive I see him becoming the next African footballer of the year.”
