Chelsea-owned wing-back Victor Moses is backing his parent club to win this season’s UEFA Champions League.

The Blues are in a strong position to reach the semifinals of the prestigious competition following their impressive 2-0 win over Porto on Wednesday, April 7.

Chelsea’s fortunes have taken a turn for the better since the appointment of former Borussia Dortmund and PSG coach Thomas Tuchel, with the club winning eleven from a possible 16 games in all competitions.

Speaking to reporters Moses said : “Chelsea they are doing very well at the moment. Hopefully they can go all the way to win the Champions League.

“It’s not going to be easy, I wish them all the best.”

The 2013 Africa Cup of Nations winner explained why he has cut down his backflip goal celebration.

“Sometimes when I score I do backflip celebration, sometimes I don’t, sometimes when in a different mood different reaction, that’s what happens sometimes.

“I try to stop doing the backflips, I don’t think it is good for your legs, you might get injured afterwards so I try to ease it down a little bit”.

Moses has missed one league match in the entirety of this campaign since joining Spartak Moscow in October 2020.
