Premier League heavyweights Manchester United are reportedly leading the chase for Chelsea outcast, Victor Moses, ahead of the winter transfer window.

The ex-Nigeria international has been linked with an exit from the Stamford Bridge in January following his recent exclusion from the team, having fallen behind Eden Hazard, Willian and Pedro in manager Maurizio Sarri’s pecking order of wingers.

According to reports, the Red Devils are favourites to get the forward’s signature in the transfer window and could encounter serious competition from rivals Arsenal and Liverpool.

“Moses has struggled for game time since Sarri’s Stamford Bridge arrival and amazingly it looks as though former boss Jose Mourinho could make a shock move for the Nigerian,” Ladbrokes’ Alex Apati has hinted.

Crystal Palace, Everton, Wolves and Leicester City are also reportedly in contention to sign the former Super Eagles star.

United manager Jose Mourinho was Moses’ boss at Chelsea and while serving loan spells at Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham under his watch.
