Moroccan midfielder praises coach and assumes himself very happy at Benfica
In an interview with the Goal.com portal, Adel Taarabt was very happy at Benfica and praised Jorge Jesus, a coach who says he knows everything about the Arab players. Something he ‘learned’ during his time in Saudi Arabia, where he commanded Al Hilal.
“I think I learned from my mistakes and started to do things well. The club helped me a lot and there I felt the pressure to play and start to focus on football. I really enjoy playing for the club,” said the Moroccan. , who says he gets along quite well with Jorge Jesus: “He has the experience at Al Hilal and knows everything about the Arab players. When he arrived he told me that he had trained there and that he had adapted to his mentality. Now I am in Portugal and I’m the one who has to adapt. He’s a very good coach, it was natural “. Taarabt also took the opportunity to recall the failed transfer in 2011 to Paris SG, when he was working at QPR at the time. “Everything was closed. I spoke to Nasser [Al-Khelaifi], we were together, but he told us that we had to wait, because Leonardo was going to arrive from Inter, but it ended up not happening because of some funds. I was already in Paris waiting “, he assumed.
