Published on: 15 January 2023

Although it wasn’t a good weekend for Lorient after they suffered a 3-1 defeat at home to Marseille but Terem Moffi scored the only goal at the Orange Vélodrome on Saturday evening. 

The race for the top scorer award in the French Ligue 1 is getting exciting with Lorient's Nigeria international Terem Moffi one goal away from catching Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe. 

Moffi found the back of the net as Lorient suffered a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Marseille at the  Stade Orange Vélodrome on Saturday evening. 

The Super Eagle opened the scoring with a powerful volley in the 29th minute but two former Arsenal stars in Alexis Sánchez and Sead Kolašinac found the net to make it 2-1, before Veretout sealed Marseille's win with a goal in the 59th minute. 

The Lorient and Super Eagles striker has now scored 12 goals in his eighteen league appearances this season just one less of the league leading scorer, Kylian Mbappe.

Moffi has been link with a handful of clubs in England but his club will not sell for nothing less than €24m.
