French defensive midfielder Yann M’Vila bounces back in the Championship.
Far from the spotlight of Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool who once courted him, Yann M’Vila settled down at West Bromwich Albion, the English second division club. Free since his departure from Olympiakos last July, the former French international signed a contract until the end of the season. He thus makes his return to England more than seven years after his time at Sunderland. The influence of Carlos Corberan, the Baggies coach and former coach of M’Vila at Thrýlos, was decisive in his signing.
“I know the manager Carlos Corberan very well and he knows me very well because we have already worked together in Greece at Olympiakos,” said the 33-year-old. It was a pleasure working with him and I’m really happy to be back with him now. (…) He contacted me and asked me to come here and straight away I said yes. »
A positive option
The Spanish technician, satisfied with the arrival of the native of Amiens, sees in him a valuable reinforcement after the injury of Jayson Molumby. “We suffered an injury to Jayson Molumby and that left us without as many options as we would like in the middle. Yann is a really positive option to have. He comes with a lot of experience and with a lot of desire and motivation to help us. We’ll have to be patient with him from a fitness standpoint as he’s been a free agent since the summer, but we know he has the determination to be ready for what will be an important few months. “, declared Corberan.
M’Vila will be keen to regain his form and help West Bromwich get back into the Premier League.
