The manager of OGC Nice, Frank Haise, has praised the mindset of German-Cameroonian forward Youssoufa Moukoko.
The youngster is on loan at the French Ligue 1 club from German Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund.
Although he was signed with a lot of expectations, things have not turned out very well. Youssoufa Moukoko has only scored two goals after making 22 appearances in all competitions for OGC Nice.
Although the forward has only started 11 matches, Frank Haise believes Youssoufa Moukoko has kept a remarkable attitude.
“He is training well but it isn’t easy. We have six, seven, eight players up front. If they can’t express themselves, score and assist… I have choices to make and can’t keep throwing players back in. But once again, I am praising the mindset that he has every day,” the OGC Nice manager told Get French Football News.
The manager further cast doubt over the ability of OGC Nice to permanently sign Youssoufa Moukoko.
“We know his situation too. He is a player that is on loan with an option to loan that in all likelihood, the club won’t be able to trigger. But his mindset is remarkable,” he said.
