Pushed towards the exit by the OM this winter whereas it does not enter at all in the plans of Jorge Sampaoli, Jordan Amavi was the victim of a combination of circumstances according to Pablo Longoria.
” Jordan or others have the right to seek a way out. The important thing is that the player progresses, if we do not succeed maybe another team can help him. We will see what will happen with him or others during the transfer window, ” Jorge Sampaoli recently indicated at a press conference, thus publicly granting an exit voucher to Jordan Amavi for this winter, especially since the left-back has only played 2 games with OM this season despite an extension until 2025 recorded last May. A very special situation for Amavi, that Pablo Longoria tried to justify in the columns of L'Equipe on Tuesday.
“New ideas have been put in place… ”
“ He didn't have much playing time in the second half of last season. A new system, new ideas were put in place from July. It is up to all players to adapt to this new situation on a daily basis. Sometimes it is done easily, sometimes with difficulty. We are more on a question of profile. The manager defined Amavi as a pure full-back, while Luan Peres has a hybrid position between center-back and full-back. Everyone knows Jordan's real level, he has a track record, ”the OM president told Amavi .
