‘How I Started Playing Football’- Chelsea Star Victor Moses

Chelsea wingback and Super Eagles forward, Victor Moses has revealed how he started playing football.

Moses said he initially played at the park in Norbury, South West London.

Victor Moses who grew up in Croydon, Streatham and Brixton, said he had asked to train with non-league side Cosmos 90, where he was scouted by Crystal Palace.

He told Chelsea website, ‘’I got noticed playing in that same park. There was a club that was training there, Cosmos 90, and I think their manager must have seen me and he told me I was a good player once. I asked if I could train with his team and he said , “Yeah.”

‘’So I joined them, but I didn’t know anyone in that team. That was my first time going to train and play with a proper team because normally we were just playing among ourselves, with friends and other people who came around.

‘’Cosmos were in the Tandridge League, which was a local competition, and that’s how I started.

“Palace scouted me from there and that’s how I ended up in the game.’’

The 26-year-old had one of his best seasons since he moved to England last term.

He helped Chelsea win the Premier League title with 34 appearances to his name.
