Moses Simon reacts after Nantes coach hands captain’s armband to Jean-Charles Castelletto
Super Eagles winger, Moses Simon, has said it is the responsibility of Nantes coach, Antoine Kamboure, to pick a team’s captain.
Moses stated this in a chat with French media on Sunday after he was stripped of the team’s captaincy and handed to Cameroonian defender, Jean-Charles Castelletto.
Moses said Jean-Charles Castelletto is a team leader and an international player, adding 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 said.
