The 24-year-old came off the bench as a second-half substitute to score and provide an assist in his side's 3-1 win over Toulouse in the French Ligue 1 on Sunday.

He netted his side's second goal with a superb header after stealing ahead of his marker in the 55th minute before setting up Moses Simon for a third six minutes later.   

"Mostafa is an ambitious player," Kombouare told the post-match news conference. "He is a good header and he gives many solutions to the coach.’"

Mohamed, who joined from Turkish side Galatasaray on a season-long loan in the close season, made four appearances with Nantes so far this term, which included only one start against Lille when the Canaries were held to a 1-1 draw at home.
