This summer, Jordan Veretout took over the management of Qatar to join Al-Arabi SC. A season barely after swapping the tunic of Olympique de Marseille for that of Olympique Lyonnais, the French midfielder has chosen to leave the old continent.
This departure is largely explained by the difficulties encountered at the Gones. This is in any case what the player trained in Nantes entrusted in an interview with the media
Square.
A passage tinged with regrets
Veretout believes that he did not benefit from the right conditions to perform at OL. “It was not my best season. I have never played my real position. They did not put me in the best arrangements, even if it was perhaps also me to adapt more ”said the new recruit of the Fareeg Al Ahlam.
Under the Rhone colors, the Ancenian played 38 games, scored 2 goals and issued a decisive pass. In Qatar, he will find a well-known face of the French elite: Pablo Sarabia, passed by Paris Saint-Germain between 2019 and 2023.
