Benatia – Cherki: The Unexpected Meeting!

At the Tournoi Sans Frontière in Sens there were several rising talents, including Kays Benatia, son of Medhi Benatia (sports director of Marseille), and Eden Cherki, brother of Rayan Cherki. These young people, already closely monitoring, wear well-known names in the football world-IS that can be difficult for players who are so young.

As reported by L'Equipe, this Monday saw the Tournoi Sans Frontière in Sens and brought together the best U14 teams in France. Marseille naturally participated. The son of Medhi Benatia, Kays, played with the young Olympians in the tournament and helped them finish fifth, with victories over teams such as Nice and Auxerre.

Benatia crossed paths with Cherki

A left wing player, Kays Benatia came against Eden Cherki, the younger brother of Rayan, who played with the U14 team of Lyon. Just like his older brother, Eden also plays as a winger. They were accompanied by Eden Yoro, younger brother of Leny Yoro.

Famous names, heavy pressure

Wearing the name of established professional football players can be a challenge. That is why the management of the Lyon Academy refused to comment on Eden Cherki, in which they explained their desire to “protect the 13-year-old child against comparisons with Rayan.”
