‘He is a phenomenal player that was top scorer in Bundesliga and he can play in various positions,’ he said. ‘Truly misfortune to lose him for the start of the time.

‘Yet, bit by bit we will track down the most ideal way for him to fit in the group. He will find huge contest since his partners are in front of him. He wants to fabricate his structure and be in his best level and afterward contend to with players, it’s a major detriment for him.’
