Super Eagles star Josh Maja has rejected the criticism of French Ligue 1, saying it is a league that puts youngsters on the road to stardom.
The French topflight has come in for criticism from fans on who believed the league lacks the quality of the Premier League.
With PSG winning the six of the last of seven Ligue 1 titles, fans believe the league also lacks the competitive edge associated with the Premier League.
However, Maja rejected such criticism, saying both leagues are unique in their ways. The 21-year-old who joined Bordeaux from Sunderland last January said the Ligue 1 provides youngsters with the opportunity to grow.
”It may not have the same physicality and intensity like the Premier League, but overall, the Ligue 1 is a fantastic league, and I am happy to be playing here with exciting and talented players”, Maja told ojbsports
Although he admits the French topflight may not have the intensity of the Premier League, Maja insists he’s happy to play in Ligue 1.
”It may not have the same physicality and intensity like the Premier League, but overall, the Ligue 1 is a fantastic league, and I am happy to be playing here with exciting and talented players, he added.
Maja has scored seven times and provided three assists in 19 appearances for Bordeaux this campaign.
