OGC Nice Head Coach Didier Digard has expressed satisfaction with Terem Moffi's performance on his debut last weekend.

Moffi, 23, began the campaign with his new club to a winning start as Nice beat Olympique Marseille 3-1 in Ligue 1 on Sunday, February 5.

The Super Eagles striker who joined Les Aiglons on transfer deadline day was drafted into the line-up by manager Didier Digard.

Moffi saw 73 minutes of action on his debut his new boss is optimistic considering his output in his first game.

“It was a high-intensity game, and he gave a lot,” Digard noted.

“It was his first game with us, and we know the situation, what with it being against a club not that he nearly joined but that he was pushed towards.

“So, obviously, it was a slightly special game. We’ll recover properly because we’re playing again pretty soon, so we’ll get some good rest,” he added.

The ex-PSG midfielder also expressed his desire to see the Nigerian international bang in more goals for the team.

“We would’ve liked him to score, but for a first game without much training with the squad, it was a very convincing performance,” Digard noted.

“We’re honestly very happy with what he brought to the team.”

Moffi joined Nice from FC Lorient for a reported fee of 30 million Euros.

He has 12 Ligue 1 goals to his credit this season.
