"He truly loves the game and is a tireless worker in his preparation for trainings, for matches and in scouting opponents. I know he'll fit in extremely well with our technical and support staff and one of his big strengths is his ability to connect with players in a way that shows them that he always has their best interests as people and players in mind."
