The arrival of Mehdi Benatia in the organization chart of Olympique de Marseille causes a wave of enthusiasm among club observers.
Called to become the new strong man of Olympique de Marseille, Mehdi Benatia should rely on his powerful network to make good moves on the transfer market. Issiar Dia, who knew the former defender well during his first life as a player, did not hide his enthusiasm when discussing the profile and skills of the Moroccan.
“ He’s not an office guy. He will take his backpack and his pen and do his own stats, in particular, he explained for La Provence. Agent, he spent a lot of hours with his players, he pampered them, watched all their matches. He will do the same at OM. He never goes anywhere without his iPad. It follows everything: Belgium, Portugal, Denmark, Brazil…“.
“ The other day he told me about a young Danish guy with great potential,” continued Dia. This position is made for him, especially since this project really motivates him and he knows the house and its problems. His network is monstrous. People can’t realize it. He is close to many people, has an influence on them. Anyone who speaks ill of it is jealous“, he concluded.
