Since Didier Deschamps announced that Jordan Veretout would go to Qatar, the controversy has not abated around the middle of OM. According to journalist Daniel Riolo, the presence of the former AS Roma player among the Blues should in fact be nothing to chance.
Not necessarily expected, the call of Jordan Veretout for the 2022 World Cup does not only make people happy. On social networks, many Internet users do not understand this choice of Didier Deschamps at all. The 29-year-old is thus criticized for not having a sufficient level to deserve such an honor.
Regularly lined up by Igor Tudor since the start of the season, (9 tenures and 5 appearances in 14 championship days), the native of Ancenis is indeed not really renowned for his spectacular and attractive game despite certain qualities. . The serious extra-sporting affairs surrounding the Nantes-trained player have not improved his reputation in recent months either. Some would therefore have preferred a profile like Tanguy Ndombélé to take his place.
Daniel Riolo’s explanation on the selection of Jordan Veretout
Daniel Riolo, for his part, has put forward a rather curious explanation for the summoning of Jordan Veretout to the famous group of 25 Blues. “There’s the gift that I’ve been waiting for for a while, the presence of Veretout in the list. It’s normal, he changed agent a very short time ago to go to the stable of Vadim Vasilyev, whose employee is Bachir Néhar (intendant of the French team). There is no undertone. I am just giving information,” thus advanced the famous columnist in theAfterFoot.

If the RMC journalist was cautious in the formulation of his remarks, this information is still surprising. This double role of steward of the French team and player agent of Bachir Néhar had already provoked the anger of the Syndicate of players’ agents in 2021, which saw it as a serious conflict of interest, recalls The world.
