‘He (Osimhen) has made a very good impression, ‎ he has great potential in him. He is ambitious, quick and highly unpredictable, he will be a star in the future if he maintains his focus’, Jonker said.

‘Both are different, Victor is a different type of player, strong, quick and hardworking. He will be in the squad for our next game. His debut is close.’
