“I met with our Muslim players. We discussed the situation. We are working to make sure everything is fine for us. We want the players to be at their best at the weekend and to be useful.

I’ve been doing this for twenty years, always as long as I work. There are no contradictions here. I am a coach and I set limits.
During the week, guys who keep the fast have no problem working out. I support them and help them, they don’t come to lunch but go to rest, they don’t train when the number of classes doubles. We want to protect them.
But on game day we have such a rule that you don’t have to fast. Those who fast are not included. I respect the fact that Hajjam is fasting. But he has to follow my rules. We have six players who fast, but he doesn’t eat on game days.
We have no problem, there will be no sanctions against him. But everything is simple, when you’re not driving, you’re not in the line-up”, quotes the coach on RMC Sport.
