Spartak Moscow’s Chief Executive Officer, Oleg Malyshev refused to discuss the future of Victor Moses, but insists the club is counting on the Nigerian this season.

Moses is gradually reaching the end of his contract, and the club is yet to open talks over a new deal.

There is growing concern among the fans that Moses could run down his contract and leave for another team.​

The former Liverpool and Chelsea forward reminded the club of his qualities when he scored in 3-2 league opener over Orenburg on Sunday.

“We haven’t talked to Moses about a contract extension yet. But we will watch and follow the game,” Malyshev told Sport Express.

“Now we are counting on him. He is one of the best starting players. Let’s see what will happen in the future.” ​

The 32-year-old joined the Russian outfit from Chelsea in 2020.
