Nigerian forward Terem Moffi has expressed happiness over his move to Nice from Lorient after snubbing some Premier League teams who were interested in his signature.

But the Nigerian felt he has unfinished business in France and chose to move to another side instead of moving to England.

The likes of Newcastle United and Everton were reported to be interested in signing Moffi.
