Denis Zakaria encense Maghnes Akliouche: “He’s a phenomenal player”

Denis Zakaria, a guest of the program Generation After on RMC, welcomed the progress of his teammate at AS Monaco, Maghnes Akliouche. The Swiss midfielder remembers the young player’s debut in La Turbie: “When I arrived two years ago, he was still a player who didn’t have much time to play. Its development has been phenomenal ever since.”

Zakaria stresses the importance of Maghnes Akliouche in the Monegasque team: “He is so important in this team.” When asked about the price set by the ASM for its jewel, between 70 and 80 million euros, Zakaria does not seem shocked: “I think it is worth its price. It is clear that his departure, if there is, he will hurt us because he is a very decisive player.”

This season, Maghnes Akliouche has 6 goals and 10 assists in 39 games in all competitions.
