Mahdavikia is unlucky, coach says
Tehran Times Sports Desk
Eintracht Frankfurt coach Michael Skibbe said the Iranian footballer Mehdi Mahdavikia plays in the position in which the team has so many options.
“He is a top sportsman, nice and a gentleman,” said Skibbe. “He is not lucky because he plays in the position in which we have Patrick Ochs, Franz Jung, and other very good players,” he added.
The 32-year old winger, whose contract ends next summer, managed only 32 games in the past 18 months. Mahdavikia has not played a single minute this season.
“We will think about him in the winter break. Eintracht is not going to sell Mahdavikia,” the Eintracht Frankfurt coach added
