Youssef En-Nesyri, who transferred from Fenerbahçe to the Saudi Arabian team Al-Ittihad, continues to be the target of criticism. En-Nesyri was brought in to fill the void left by Karim Benzema, but the club's former player Muhammed El-Deayea stated that this transfer is not at a sufficient level for the club and expressed that the Moroccan star is a poor striker.
Youssef En-Nesyri, who has often been the focus of criticism at Fenerbahçe and transferred to the Saudi Arabian team Al-Ittihad during the winter transfer period, continues to be a topic of discussion in Arabia.
TRANSFERRED IN PLACE OF BENZEMA
The Moroccan player En-Nesyri transferred to Al-Ittihad to fill the gap left by Karim Benzema, who left the team to sign with Al Hilal.
''HE TOOK AL-ITTIHAD BACKWARDS''
Former Al-Ittihad player Muhammed El-Deayea criticized En-Nesyri heavily, stating that this transfer was not sufficient for the club after Benzema's departure. In his statement, Muhammed El-Deayea said, ''The person who preferred En-Nesyri in place of Benzema took Al-Ittihad backwards. Since the French star left, I feel that the team has lost its leadership character on the field. Benzema's touch on the game and the decisions he made were very special. Just as we talk about Cristiano Ronaldo's character, Benzema had the same character.''
''EN-NESYRI IS A BAD PLAYER''
Muhammed El-Deayea stated that the Moroccan player is a bad and inadequate player, emphasizing that Al-Ittihad lost its most important element, namely Benzema. They won the league and the cup with him; he was a great strength for the team. In my opinion, Al-Ittihad made a mistake by transferring En-Nesyri. He is a bad and very inadequate striker.''
PERFORMANCE IN ARABIA
En-Nesyri, who played 7 matches for the Saudi team Al-Ittihad, scored 3 goals and provided 1 assist in these matches.
