For several weeks now, Carl Medjani has expressed his desire to leave Greece, primarily due to limited playing time at Olympiakos since his loan move from AS Monaco last June. The Algerian defender’s lack of regular appearances is a concern, especially with the 2014 World Cup on the horizon, making it imperative for him to secure more playing opportunities.
Vahid Halilhodzic, the coach, has already issued a warning about the importance of consistent game time for Medjani. Various options are available for the defender to revive his career. While a return to Ajaccio has been mentioned, the current situation of the Corsican club may not align with his objectives. Instead, several Ligue 1 teams, including Lille, Valenciennes, and Rennes, have expressed interest in acquiring his services.
Italy is also a prospective destination for the Algerian player, with clubs like Sassuolo and Chievo Verona being mentioned as potential suitors. Medjani’s versatile profile has attracted attention, and it remains to be seen where he will land as he seeks to regain regular playing time ahead of the upcoming World Cup.
