Chelsea star could return to his former club in January

Retired Super Eagles winger Victor Moses could return to Crystal Palace when the transfer window reopens in January according to various reports in the media.

The 27-year-old has been on the fringes of the Chelsea team in the new campaign thus prompting rumours about a move away from the club during the January transfer window.

Victor Moses has rarely featured for Chelsea since manager Maurizio Sarri was named the Blues manager in the summer.

The former West Ham United and Liverpool star has played just 26 minutes of Premier League football under the new managerial dispensation of the Italian tactician.

Sarri replaced compatriot Antonio Conte in the summer after the former Juventus boss was sacked due to an underwhelming season in the last campaign.

Victor Moses was a regular in the 3-4-3 setup utilised under Conte.

• Is this the time for Ruben Loftus-Cheek to be a regular player for Chelsea?

He was constantly used at right-back by the ex-Italian international player.

His inactivity under Maurizio Sarri has led to transfer rumours about an exit from Stamford Bridge.

The 2013 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) winner has been linked with clubs like Crystal Palace, Manchester United and Everton.

According to a report from Italian news outlet calciomercato, Crystal Palace are interested in him and he could make a return to the club he left for Wigan Athletic in 2010.

He rose through the Crystal Palace ranks before joining the Championship outfit.
