On the official OM website, the OM scorer Neal Maupay – The Best Of Neal Maupay was able to express himself on several subjects. He notably spoke about the competition situation between him and Elye Wahi.
“Elye Wahi, he’s a great guy”
“It's going very well with Elye. We're two center forwards for one place. Because we play with just one striker. But we push ourselves every day in training. We push ourselves to the top. And that's it. It's important for the team to have two efficient attackers because obviously, when Elye has a good match, when Elye trains well, it pushes me too. versa. And Elye is a great guy. We see him every time, if you look at the videos, the photos, he's always smiling, always making jokes and putting in a good mood. So it's going really well. a little younger than me, so there’s a good relationship, a little experience, his youth, it’s going very well.”
In this half hour of questions and answers, the two smiling Olympians responded seriously and kindly to the young Marseillais. Some questions still put them in difficulty, but they tried to share their feelings.
Maupay: “Do I believe we can win the championship? Yes”
This is the case for Maupay when he was asked if he thought OM could win Ligue 1 this season. “What I think is that it's complicated to say. I would like, I think we would all like to win, it's a very tough championship, there are some very good teams and for the moment we are behind, but the season is long and do I believe we can win the championship? Yes. Then we will see.
Currently 5 points behind PSG, OM must win against Lille on Saturday, to keep intact the hope of this young supporter, but also that of certain other older ones!
