Kia Joorabchian is retaliated against by Jamie Carragher. Following his remarks on Everton, Kia Joorabchian has received criticism from Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher. The pundit cited Everton, Queens Park Rangers (QPR), and Arsenal to support his claim that the agency was responsible for “weakening” clubs.
Carragher thinks the toxic connection between Joorabchian and Everton owner Farhad Moshiri has cost the Toffees a lot of games. The Merseyside club recently fired Frank Lampard and is currently in the relegation zone.
Carragher responded to Joorabchian’s talkSPORT remarks about him on Twitter. “Kia, there is no need to get personal, I’m only analyzing your function in football teams,” the Liverpool icon wrote in a tweet.
Kia Joorabchian criticized the Liverpool icon on Wednesday after Jamie Carragher blamed him for Everton’s demise. The agent fired insults at the pundit and brought up the time the ex-footballer spat on a female while driving.
Added Joorabchian to talkSPORT: “Because Simon [Jordan] is an intelligent man, I appreciate what he has to say. As opposed to someone like Jamie Carragher, who regrettably lives in a glass house, spits out of moving vehicles, and has no formal education.”
Joorabchian responded when Carragher accused the agent of pressuring his clients to sign with Everton: “Throughout Farhard’s time at Everton, I’ve transferred three of my players there. Richarlison, who enjoyed great success. Bernard left Shakhtar on a free transfer, and once again, he was a player who wasn’t a total bust and did excellent work.”
The agent went on to discuss the failed transfer: “We had Carlo Ancelotti, who was the only manager they accepted on our recommendation, and we always propose our client to every Premier League club seeking a manager. El-Ghazi was part of the Lucas Digne transfer and an FFP scenario, and we were also involved in that. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out because the manager changed and he wasn’t in the new manager’s plans.” Everton has not yet named a new manager, but Marcelo Bielsa has been mentioned.
