ASSE: Puel changes his tune, golden opportunity for Khazri

Wahbi Khazri can continue his reconquest operation this Sunday against Montpellier, match counting for the 9th day of Ligue 1. According to L’Équipe, the Tunisian will be established at the forefront of the attack, which still seemed unthinkable in the heart of the summer .

Indented by Claude Puel this summer, Wahbi Khazri has regained credit with his trainer. The Tunisian was called up for the first time this season in Lens on October 3 (6th day). He had received a red card in the North, depriving him of the next day against Nice, before taking part in his second game of the season last Sunday in Metz. Sign of the change of position of Puel, the offensive element of 29 years could even be established for the first time this Sunday against Montpellier (1 p.m., 9th day). In today’s edition, The team places the former Bastia player in the starting lineup of the Greens.

The general manager of the club, Claude Puel, could favor the Tunisian to Charles Abi this Sunday against the Montpellier hinge Mendes-Congré. The number 10 would then come to occupy the tip of the attack in front of Romain Hamouma, placed in support. If his tenure is confirmed when the compositions are announced, Wahbi Khazri will have a good chance to shine and make his comeback in the core of Claude Puel. Undermined by absences in defense, ASSE must do without Debuchy, Trauco, Mason or Retsos. Khazri’s experience can count, especially in a four-game losing streak in the league. The Greens have the opportunity to raise their heads, Khazri too. This match, which promises to be undecided, could ultimately suit everyone at the Greens.
