With his dribbling abilities, dynamism and goalscoring threat, he increases our versatility in wide attacking areas. His rapid development has not only attracted attention in Germany but internationally too. We’re therefore all the more pleased that he has decided to join us and embrace the clear plan we presented him with. We know that after jumping two divisions he will require a certain amount of time to adjust, but we’re confident that Ayoube will adapt quickly to these new challenges with the time and support we’re going to give him.”
