After signing his contract, Bornauw spoke exclusively to LUTV.

“I’m really pleased to be here, it’s an amazing club,” he began.

“The Premier League was always my dream, and then to play for such a big club in England and in Europe, it's a dream come true.

“I think the Premier League for me is the biggest league in the world. Obviously, Germany is a really strong league too, but I think as a football player, we aim for the highest and I think the Premier League is the highest for me.”

Giving the fans more information on his style of play, Bornauw explained: “I'm quite an aggressive defender, I would say.

“I'm strong. I like duels and I think that’s pretty English. I think as a centre-back, I'm dangerous in front of the goal, I like set pieces, offensive set pieces. So that's what I think my game is, I would say.”
