Super Eagles forward, Moses Simon, is on the radar of three Ligue 1 clubs and and some Saudi-based sides as his contract with FC Nantes nears its expiration in 2024, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.

The Nigeria international joined the club in 2020 on a four-year deal, but there are no indications of a contract renewal despite his fine form in Ligue 1 this season, hinting at an imminent departure.

According to Fabrizio Romano, citing Footmercato, Olympique Lyonnais, Nice and Lille are the French clubs considering a move for the 28-year-old forward.

Romano also stated that not only the Ligue 1 sides are interested in him but some Saudi Arabian clubs have also inquired about his availability ahead of January, when they can begin to negotiate with the winger.

“Moses Simon, one to watch in 2024 as he’s out of contract in June. Not only OL as per @foomercato; understand also OGC Nice and Lille are interested in the Nigerian player. Saudi clubs have also asked for potential conditions of the deal,” Romano stated on X (formerly Twitter).

The Super Eagles star boasts 29 goals and 31 assists in 161 appearances for Nantes, proving his value to any prospective club eyeing his talents.

Simon has been plying his trade in Ligue 1 since the summer of 2019 when he joined Nantes on loan before the transfer was made permanent the following season.

He was linked with an exit from Nantes in the summer but eventually stayed at the club and has played a vital role for them this season. The former Gent forward has eight-goal contributions in 15 league games this season, just one less than he gathered in the whole of last season.

It remains to be seen whether his form will persuade Nantes to extend his stay at the club beyond next summer.
