In a bid not to lose out on getting a fee for players who will be out of contract, clubs are usually keen on extending their deals to protect their interest, especially if the player ranks among their important players.
Such kind of players are mostly tempted with offers that they can’t refuse and that is the case with French Ligue 1 side Nantes and Super Eagles winger Moses Simon. You can follow Ligue 1 live scores on Flashscore. The wing ace has a year left on his deal at the club after this season.
Nantes have already tabled a contract extension offer of two more years to make Simon who is presently their highest earning player, the highest paid player ever in their history of the club, OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.
The 27 year old is said to be open to just an additional year to his existing deal and that impasse is what is currently hindering the announcement of the deal. He is however keen on staying at the club after snubbing several offers to leave the club during the last summer transfer window.
Simon has over his stay at the club shown to be their most valuable player with a total of 47 goals contributions in 111 games in all competitions. It involves 24 goals and 23 assists, a feat which has seen him win their player of the year award twice.
