Martin Terrier future sports director? This is a possibility since the French striker knows how to spot talented young people within the squads where he played. And as he tells So Foothe quickly detected the talent of Rayan Cherki on the OL side, taking advantage of the future French international’s first steps. “He was 16, and I felt like he was 25! In the locker room, it’s not that he didn’t have tact, he was himself, that’s what’s beautiful. He was fresh, he talked with everyone like he would talk with his friends. I never saw any disrespect in him, or a bad attitude”he said, which is similar to what we told you two days ago, before discussing Cherki’s technical qualities.

“The first time, I was like, ‘What is this guy?’ It’s not normal, he had both feet, like Ousmane. He took a corner from the right, then a penalty from the left. I love watching him play, Rayan. He’s a magician, he’s real football. This type of player tends to disappear with all the video analysis. It’s good, it’s part of the evolution of football, but there is less spontaneity. Everything is prepared in advance. He is quite the opposite. It’s instinctive”. And to conclude: “that’s why Rayan is unique, it was a treat to play with him. » The interested party will appreciate it!
