His decision is lucidly explained, “Re-signing at Racing Genk was not a difficult decision as the club serves as a significant stepping stone in my career. I feel prepared for the Premier League or the Bundesliga, but I am willing to be patient. In Belgium, I can continue to evolve and advance,” affirmed Mbodji Kara to Het Nieuwsblad.
