Burnley’s attempt to rescue Spartak Moscow player Victor Moses from the distress of being left in limbo in warring Russia has been blocked by the Premier League.
Megasportsarena.com reports that the former Nigeria international is still stuck in the capital, isolated from family and friends.
Moses, a former Chelsea wing-back, is considered out of contract until June 30 this year, and can be signed under special dispensation granted by FIFA and UEFA.
There has been a temporary amending of the statutes governing transfers due to Russia’s war on Ukraine.
Burnley have tried to provide Moses with the opportunity to play again, earn a salary, and be reunited with his family in England, but the Premier League does not want to accept any such request, citing the sporting integrity of the competition.
