After that, I watched games with his participation, and then we met to show our common path, how we see it. To point out his strengths and weaknesses, where he can take the next steps. We hope he will go this way, like many other young players.
Rafa Lubach also played in the youth team. We hope he will go this way, like many others who came from youth teams. But not all are the same. Not everyone progresses at the same speed. But we all believe that he is a fantastic player,” Klose said.
