Transfer of Azzedine Ounahi: Morocco puts pressure

The Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) is having trouble getting used to the idea that the Lion of the Atlas Azzedine Ounahi would leave Olympique de Marseille for Qatar.

Azzedine Ounahi on his way to Qatar? Al-Sadd and Al-Ettifaq, a Saudi club led by Steven Gerrard, are showing interest in the revelation of the 2022 World Cup. Moreover, the former captain of the Atlas Lions Medhi Benatia, sports advisor to OM, reportedly threatened to sideline him from the group, to ruin his career if he did not sign in Qatar. “Benatia forced Ounahi’s hand, playing a toxic role in this matter, going so far as to threaten to sideline him by preventing him from playing if he refused to play in Qatar,” insists the player’s entourage to the site The360.
