Marseille's Amine Harit Reassures Fans After Ankle Injury Scare in Europa League Match

Victim of a violent tackle with Tariq Lamptey at the ankle level during the 2-2 draw between OM and Brighton in the Europa League, Moroccan international Amine Harit has given reassuring news about his health.

Injured at the ankle level in the 52nd minute of play during the draw against Brighton (2-2), the Moroccan midfielder of OM tried to reassure everyone about his health condition. "It was more fear than harm. I was really scared at the time. There will be no problem for tomorrow. I feel good, better and better, in the last few games, it showed. I don’t set myself any goals. In the Amsterdam and Brighton matches, I’m not far from being very, very good," he explained at the press conference to the microphone of RMC Sport. It remains to be seen whether Amine Harit will be lined up for OM’s next match against Le Havre this Sunday.

Moreover, the Moroccan international did not spare his praise for his new coach Gennaro Gattuso: "He is someone who sends a lot of positive energy, with Sampaoli we were used to this energy. He came with his past, he brings a lot of good things. The work has paid off in the last game. He sends important signals for a group, he walks on affection, with little things that make a group live well. Since he arrived, there is something new, it bodes well for the future."

The Italian technician, in turn, praised Harit. "He is a wonderful player. He can play on the wings and can be freer in midfield. He is very intelligent, he is a silent leader. He talks, follows and sees football. He is coming out of an injury, but he brings us in terms of quality. He can really become a complete player. The fact that he sees football proves the love he has for his work," he acknowledged.
