Journalist
After trying different sports, Thibault turned to a career as an amateur footballer. When making a choice between becoming a professional footballer and a journalist, the qualities tipped the scales to one side. Here he is now in the editorial staff of 10 Sport, after a diploma obtained at the International Institute of Communication in Paris.
During the last summer transfer window, having to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, OM took out the checkbook to offer themselves Elye Wahi. Then at RC Lens, the French striker was poached for nearly €25 million. A substantial investment which, a few months later, is not a success. So much so that a departure from Wahi is already being mentioned. Can we then talk about the biggest flop in OM history?
Starting again on a new project with Roberto DeZerbi in charge, OM carried out an XXL transfer window last summer. We thus finished with 12 recruits on the clock. There has been a lot of movement in the offensive sector, with the Marseille club notably recording the arrival ofElye Wahi. After only one season RC Lenswhere it was not easy for him, the Frenchman was recruited for €25M in particular to compensate for the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in Saudi Arabia. Obviously, given this investment, Place was expected at the turnABOUT.
Wahi already on the move?
With Elye Wahil’ABOUT certainly thought he had finally found his “grantatakan”. The fact is that at the moment, this is clearly not the case. In fact, the recruit who arrived from the RC Lens has had one series of disappointments so far, almost failing to find the net. And now, just a few months after his arrival in Marseille for €25M, questions are already being asked about its future. If Pablo Longoria had made it known that Place had not been leaving in January, it would have been just window dressing. Indeed, this scenario would indeed be possible for this winter transfer window, the scorer of theABOUT interesting in particular West Ham.
A new flop at OM?
There is no doubt that if Elye Wahi leaveABOUT from this winter transfer window, he will be among the biggest flops of the Marseille club. Is he the biggest? Many names ring out when it comes to remembering recent failures to Marseille. There is obviously Vitinha, Kostas Mitroglou, Kevin Strootman or even Indian educationwho only stayed one year at theABOUT.
So, is Elye Wahi the biggest flop in OM history?
