Spartak Moscow confirm permanent deal for Chelsea wing-back Moses

Spartak Moscow have confirmed Victor Moses will join the club on a permanent deal.

The Chelsea wing-back joined Spartak on loan last summer.

The loan deal stipulated Moses could sign permanently if Spartak finished in the top three.

The Moscow giants finished second behind champions Zenit St Petersburg following the final round of matches last week.

Speaking about Moses' future, Spartak's PR director Anton Fetisov told RIA Novosti: "His contract would be automatically redeemed if the team finished in the top three, and we finished second."

Moses' departure will likely be the first of many at Stamford Bridge this summer.

Fellow loanees Ross Barkley, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Davide Zappacosta and Michy Batshuayi have all been linked with permanent exits.
