“I was talking about the fault of the attackers we have in Ligue 1, who don’t score enough. We have criticized him a lot, but in the end, Jonathan David must certainly be in the top 3 of our attackers in Ligue 1. And we are not talking about a crack player, but a good regular attacker, who weighs on defenses , does his job as a scorer, a goalkeeper, and participates in the game. Honestly, today, a team like OM would be very happy to have a player like David up front. Marseille put 30 million euros on Vitinha, 30 million on Wahi, that's 60… With that, you could afford David, because he was for sale, on the market. And for €50 million, Olivier Létang filled the trunk of the car… A good striker is essential in a team,” declared Riolo on the airwaves of RMC Sport.
For Daniel Riolo, OM missed a real opportunity to strengthen their attack with Jonathan David. It remains to be seen if the current Olympian scorer Elie Wahi will manage to regain his level in Montpellier in the weeks and months to come to make the RMC Sport journalist lie.
