Hailing from Nigeria, Moses started his footballing journey with Akwa United before making the leap to European football with Lillestrøm in Norway, per the club website.
Moses’ journey through the Norwegian leagues saw him struggle to impress after he notched three goals during his time at Lillestrøm before moving on to clubs such as HamKam and Tromso.

Ebiye Moses is the latest Nigerian in the Scottish league.
However, at Hamkam, Moses found his feet as he contributed four goals and five assists in 20 appearances for the club, showing his goal scoring and playmaking abilities.
His move to Tromso saw him enjoy his best season yet, amassing an impressive tally of 12 goals and nine assists in 43 games for the club.
Now, the potential Super Eagles striker has opened a new chapter in his journey following the move to Scottish football with Motherwell.
With a track record of success in the Norwegian top flight, Moses arrives in Scotland poised to make an immediate impact, bolstering Motherwell’s attacking options with his goal-scoring and creative flair.
However, before Moses can make his mark on the Scottish Premiership, he awaits international clearance.
