Lacking in efficiency since his arrival this summer, Elye Wahi misses his debut with Olympique de Marseille. The French striker is not spared from criticism from observers who already consider him a flop. But consultant Eric Di Meco does not agree.
A goal on Sunday at Montpellier, his training club, would do a lot of good for Elye Wahi. The Olympique de Marseille striker needs it after his failed debut. Since his arrival this summer, the former Racing Club de Lens player has scored only one goal: a successful penalty in Brest (5-1 victory) during the first day of Ligue 1. For the rest, his clumsiness prevented him from adding to his statistics and has already earned him the status of a flop for some observers.
An added value on Wahi?
However, this is not the opinion of Eric Di Meco, certain that President Pablo Longoria will emerge a winner after this recruitment at 25 million euros (excluding bonus). “ I’m not convinced that this boy can go above and beyond to be decisive in Champions League matches in particular, since that is OM’s objective.recognized the RMC consultant. Be careful because you always have boys who reveal themselves a little later. I have this doubt, and maybe one day he will get up and take it up a notch. But to talk about carrots and industrial accidents… No! 21 years old… »
« He just needs to have a season with 15 goals, behind that you will whet the appetite of clubs because it’s a rare position, it’s a position where you have a lot of clubs looking for. And maybe you’ll make a profit on this boyimagined the former Marseillais. I have doubts about whether it will reach the international level. But still, let’s wait! Be careful, if he scores in Montpellier, he plays against Paris… Where I don’t agree with De Zerbi is when he says that Wahi is poorly served. He was wrong. Against Reims, he had the opportunities. These are clear scoring opportunities from the surface that he harvests. » A goal synonymous with the trigger will perhaps allow Elye Wahi to reassure the Olympian leaders.
