OGC Nice forward Terem Moffi has won the UEFA Europa Conference League Goal of the Season award.
This was disclosed in a statement by UEFA on its website.
Part of the statement reads, “Goals of the 2022/23 UEFA Europa Conference League campaign have been selected by UEFA’s Technical Observer panel, with Terem Moffi’s acrobatic effort for Nice at Basel earning the honour of Goal of the Season”.
The 24-year-old’s acrobatic effort for Nice at Basel in April earned him the award.
“Lazio talisman Ciro Immobile claimed the runners-up spot while Andy Diouf, the Young Player of the Season, came third – one of two top-ten entries for the Basel youngster,” the statement added.
10 players including Villarreal and Nigerian striker Samuel Chukwueze were nominated for the individual accolade.
He was placed fourth in the goal of the season contest.
