It is a choice that has something to leave regrets … former agent of Hatem Ben Arfa and Karim Benzema when they evolved on the side of OL, Fred Guerra was forced to choose between the two players. The latter were at the time the two greatest hopes of the Lyon training.
Whoever worked on sites before becoming an agent received pressures from the mother of “HBA”, who did not want to see “KB9” pass professional. No doubt so that the current Al-Ittihad striker does not shade his son.
“” On the side of the Ben Arfa clan the mother said: “I warn you, that Karim does not sign professional. I warn you. There were pressures on all sides and I watched Karim telling myself that he deserved him so much but I had so much pressures “, Thus revealed Fred Guerra on RMC waves.
“There has become one who has become a golden ball and the other nonexistent”
Closer to Hatem Ben Arfa and his entourage at the time, the representative of players had then decided in favor of the attacking midfielder passed in particular by OM and PSG later. “” At one point I told myself that I had brought Hatem, I had committed to his parents so that my wife and I are his Lyon parents until her majority, he said. So I told myself that I was going to continue to be the one I decided to be three or four years before. And too bad, I had to stop with Karim. »»
But necessarily, given the career trajectory of the two men, Fred Guerra does not hide having some regrets. “” You can't tell yourself that he conceded. There has become one who has become a golden ball and the other nonexistent. You cannot say that that, that Karim was a player identified at the time as exceptional. Afterwards, could we have continued to get along like when he was a teenager? I don't know. Because a boy grows, it takes his ideas. »»
