Former Super Eagles Forward Victor Moses is targeting Premier League football once more after returning to England to join Luton Town.

Victor Moses has not played in the second tier since his departure from Crystal Palace to Wigan in 2010. After a successful, trophy-laden career in top-flight football across England, Italy, Turkey, and Russia, the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winner is now eager to return to top-tier football with Luton Town, also known as the Hatters.

“I’m very excited and I can’t wait to get started,” said Victor. “I’m looking forward to it, it’s a pleasure to be here. It’s a good time for me to be in the country and start to enjoy my football again.

“After Luton were in the Premier League last season, and coming back down to the Championship, the main objective now it to try and help the club go back up to the Premier League again.”

Having watched several of the Town’s matches last season with his friend and former Chelsea team-mate Ross Barkley in the team, Victor went on: “I thought Luton did well last season, and were just a bit unlucky sometimes. With most of the boys that were playing, it might have been their first time playing in the Premier League, but it was a good experience for the boys.

“But you know what, football is like this sometimes. They were just a little bit unlucky not to stay up last season.

“I thought the boys did fantastically well, but this season’s target now is to focus more on the game on Saturday coming up, and just taking each game as it comes and try to get back up into the Premier League.”

With nearly 550 career appearances, including medals from the Premier League, FA Cup, and Europa League, along with experience in World Cups, the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), and the Champions League, the 33-year-old boasts an impressive footballing profile.
