Experiencing a complicated start to the season where he was sidelined by his coach Edin Terzic, Youssoufa Moukoko kept his playing time low with 240 minutes in 11 games for 2 goals. A situation which contrasts with what he experiences with the German U21 team where he is a hit with 6 goals scored in 3 matches. Thriving with his national team, he hopes this will convince Edin Terzic to use him more.
He took the opportunity to slip a small tackle on him as reported Kicker : “I always score goals here because I play a full 90 minutes. It’s really good for me to get into this rhythm of play. The club still lacks this, but the trend has clearly improved since the last international break. In the end, I want to play here as much as possible in order to recommend myself to the club. In the end, we’ll see if that’s enough.”
