The fate is on Elye Wahi. While his replacement at Olympique de Marseille, Amine Gouiri, has seen since he became Marseille (4 goals, 3 assists in 7 L1 matches), Wahi has still not been able to bounce back to Germany. Recruited this winter by Eintracht Frankfurt in exchange for around twenty million euros, the former Montpellier was mainly distinguished by his spikes towards OM. After a polemical like during an Olympian defeat against Lens, Wahi had settled his accounts with his former club in the media.
“”I will tell you frankly, I was a little disappointed. I didn't think it was going to finish quickly like that. When you arrive in a club, you don't want to leave after six months. We had to consider something else very quickly. We tried to find the best solution. For me, it was to come to Frankfurt. It is the life of the big clubs. You have to show immediately. Unfortunately, they did not give me my chance, but it does not matter.Unfortunately for him, his beginnings in the Bundesliga do not really give regret to OM. He who probably dreams of knowing the same efficiency that Randal Kolo Muani and Hugo Ekitike have known, Wahi has still not found the net in six games.
Towards an end of the season for Wahi?
An assessment that begins to annoy a club which had to compose with the departure of its star attacker, Omar Marmoush (Manchester City). However, the Eintracht sports director, Markus Krösche, had come to the aid of French. “Give him a little time and peace. He has capacities. He has already proven it in his career. We want to let him arrive in peace. Elye will mark and make assists for us. He should integrate in peace. The processes must be good, he must get to know guys and his teammates must get to know his races ”. For his part, coach Dino Toppmöller does not necessarily seem as patient. When a journalist recently asked him when he thought he saw Wahi take off, his answer was immediate: “This is the question of one million euros in who wants to earn millions”.
Disappointed and annoyed by the failed beginnings of Elle Wahi, the leaders of the Eintracht will have to take their pain in patience. Kicker reveals that the Frenchman was injured in the knee. Result: it is announced absent for several weeks. A real blow for the player, just 8 games from the end of the championship, even if the German media assures that within the club, nobody saw Wahi as a decisive element for the end of the season. A lack of confidence illustrated by the remarks made by Kicker Regarding the succession of Marmoush: “It seems that a sparrow follows the traces of an elephant”.
