Super Eagles winger Moses Simon reacted after Nantes coach Antoine Kamboure stripped him of the team’s captaincy and handed the reins over to Cameroonian defender Jean-Charles Castelletto.
Moses who spoke to the French media on Sunday said that it is the coach who decides on such issues as Jean-Charles Castelletto is a team leader and an international player.
The pacy winger said that the most important thing is not Simon but the team as a whole, because if they win or lose, it is not him (Simon) but the team that they all represent.

“We are a team,” he said as per Nantes media. “It is the coach who decides. He knows why he is giving it today to JC (Jean-Charles Castelletto), who is a team leader, and an international player.
“Even Pallois, Lafont, Chirivella… When you are the captain of the team, you don’t do everything. We are here to play, not to be captain. There is no difference between us and JC.
“The important thing is not Simon. It’s the team. If we win or lose, it’s not Simon. It’s the team. We’re here for the good of the team. We’re together,” he reiterated.
