Relegated to the substitutes' bench, Elye Wahi missed his first months at Olympique de Marseille. The striker recruited last summer, however, has not exhausted all his credit with Marseille observers.
To find the trace of his last tenure, you have to go back to October 27. It was the day of the Classic (0-3 for Paris Saint-Germain), when Roberto De Zerbi took him out at half-time. Since then, the Olympique de Marseille striker has seen his competitor Neal Maupay steal the spotlight. Enough to encourage President Pablo Longoria to sell it this winter? On the Phocéen plateau, Maxence Volpe called this hypothesis into question by recalling the situation of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang last season.
Wahi can bounce back
« I'm going to say exactly the same thing as last season about Aubameyang, and I hope it will give the same logiccommented the Marseille observer. With Aubameyang, I still saw things where I said to myself that there was a way to have an interesting striker. I think it's the same for Wahi but he's completely lacking in confidence. Maupay got the better of him but I really have good hopes for the second part of the season. Afterwards, once I said that, I could be totally wrong and he could flop the whole second part of the season. »
Ready to give the former Lensois a chance, Maxence Volpe would refuse an offer of 20 million euros for the center forward. “ The value of Transfermarkt (25 million euros) suits me. OM invested 28 million euros. Indeed, given that it flopped, if we arrive at 25 million euros, it is not an industrial disasterhe imagined. At 20 million euros, I say to myself, you have lost 8 million euros in six months, I don't agree, I still want to see him play for OM. “Given his last months, it would be surprising if a club came up with such a proposal.
