Holder of a Master's degree in international law, I realized at the end of my university career that it was important to evolve in a field that you appreciate. Overnight, I decided to put an end to my parents' dream, who saw in me a future lawyer, to make a living from my passion: sport. Since then, I have covered transfer windows and sports news, trying to keep readers informed as best as possible.
At the end of his contract with OM, Mehdi Benatia has the possibility of continuing the adventure. He was offered a two and a half year lease, to match that of Roberto de Zerbi. But the former Moroccan international is hesitant to continue the adventure due to internal tensions, particularly with the administrative sector, which would encroach on his work.
When Mehdi Benatia is asked if he will become the next sports director of theABOUTthe doubt is perceptible. “ I'm still thinking a little bit, I'm going to see how the end of the year goes.” declared the former Moroccan international in the columns of Provence. Because before making his decision, the manager expects guarantees from Pablo Longoria.
Benatia's warning
As explained RMC Sport, Benatia would like to revolutionize the internal functioning. Its goal is for the entire club to be focused on sports. Above all, he would not want people who work in the administrative sector like Cecilia Barontini, Director General of the'OMG, come and put a spoke in his wheels.
His signature is uncertain
Due to these tensions, the signing of Benatia remains uncertain. “ It's hard to imagine him signing his contract as sports director if he doesn't have the conviction that this difficult situation will evolve favorably.” specifies the media. Longoria will have to find the right words to convince him.
