“It can twist”
Despite an achievement (facing Nice), the beginnings of Neal Maupay – The Best Of Neal Maupay with theABOUT are not necessarily a success. According to Graham Potterwhich led the attacker to Brightoninterviewed by The Teamthe Marseille club should pay attention to their scorer, because, like the match against Angersthe latter can sometimes twist. “At Brighton, a club that needed to establish itself in the elite, Neal helped us create a team, but also a culture, an environment. I'm grateful to have known him because with his personality he tests you, the coach. He is fundamentally a good person, very thoughtful off the field, who wants to learn. But on the pitch, he is such a fighter that emotionally, when he doesn't have what he wants, he can spiral. It was up to him to recognize it and it was up to me to support him to get the best out of himself and help the team. »
