While he was walking on water with OM at the start of the season, Moroccan international Amine Harit is marking time at the end of the year.
Sensation Marseille At the start of the season, Amine Harit experienced a drop in performance mid-season. As proof, while he had a goal plus 4 assists at the end of the first five days of Ligue 1, with a playing time worthy of that of an indisputable starter, the midfielder Moroccan remains on 4 appearances out of 10 possible as well as only one achievement at the end of the calendar year on Olympus.
Officially ejected from the match sheet for an unknown reason between the 10th and 14th days, the Lion of the Atlas (24 caps, 1 goal) was reinstated during the last match of the year, on December 14. , during OM-Lille (1-1), without playing. A necessarily delicate situation for the native of Pontoise.
“He no longer has the right to repeat a season without scoring 10 goals
Obviously back in the Marseille group, the 27-year-old must convince before reintegrating into the plans of coach Roberto De Zerbi. During an interview for Provence dating from September and republished this Tuesday, the former Brighton coach had already made it known that he expected more from the former Nantes resident. Particularly in terms of efficiency in front of goal:
“Harit, who is 27, 28, 29 years old, I don't know exactly (27 years old), he no longer has the right to repeat a season without scoring 10 goals. I push him, I tell him that constantly. No one has ever done that for me so I want to do it with my players.”
A reminder for the main person concerned. Note that Harit's most prolific season dates back to his penultimate at Schalke 04, in 2019-2020, where he scored 6 times in 25 league matches.
