Recruited for 30 million euros from Racing Club de Lens during the summer transfer window, bonus included, Elye Wahi has a very complicated first part of the season at Olympique de Marseille. For the moment, the native of Courcouronnes has only scored two goals in twelve Ligue 1 matches.
Present at a press conference this Wednesday morning, Pablo Longoria ruled out any possibility of departure during the month of January. “Out of the question. I’m sure we have one of the best young strikers in Europe. His time will arrive, we are calm, he must remain calm. He has all the qualities to win here.”imagines the president of the Marseille club.
Wahi, OM still believes in him
However, many observers are skeptical about the success of the 21-year-old striker at OM. This is particularly the case of Pierre Ménès. “I would like to understand the reasoning of the leaders of Marseille. The guy succeeds in Montpellier but fails in Lensunderlined the sports journalist on his YouTube channel at the end of October. How can you think that after failing in Lens, he will succeed in Marseille, where you get burned at the slightest bad match? I’m afraid this season will be very difficult for him, especially since he has the threat Neal Maupay behind him. »
On social networks, Wahi has not been spared from criticism since the start of the season. Marseille supporters seem much more intransigent towards this player than they could be with others, due to his claimed Parisian “belonging” in 2022.
