Scorer on Sunday evening in the championship with OM against Le Havre, Elye Wahi has therefore regained confidence, an element which he has missed so much in recent months with the Marseille club. And Adrien Rabiot, his partner at OM, is already announcing Wahi's big return to form for the second part of the season.
Recruited for €30M from RC Lens last summer, Elye Wahi (22 years old) was certainly the biggest disappointment of the first half of the season on the side ofABOUT. Number 9, expected as the new big striker following the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyanghad only scored 2 goals in 12 Ligue 1 matches. But Sunday evening, while OM were a success against Le Havre (5-1), Place took the opportunity to score his 3rd achievement of the season and regain some confidence.
“He has enormous talent”
Questioned in the mixed zone after the match, Adrien Rabiot praised the qualities of the goalscorerABOUT despite his status as a replacement: “ He is a young player with enormous talent. We see it in training. I know it can be complicated when you're young, when you're an attacker, and when you don't necessarily score goals. This is where we expect it, but we all know its potential. He's a great boy. I would like things to go well for everyone, that everyone can play and flourish. Unfortunately, this is not always the case: there are 11 players starting out and not everyone can play », confides the midfielder of theABOUT.
“We can’t do without him”
« But when Elye comes in and scores a goal like that, it gives him pep again, desire, enthusiasm. It's good for him, but also for the group, because we will need everyone. There will be times when he will have to play, and an Elye Wahi in good shape, we can't do without him », continues Rabiotwhich therefore announces heavy action in the second part of the season for Elie Place with theABOUT.
