While the arrival of a new central defender is being discussed at ASSE, Eirik Horneland praised Dylan Batubinsika at a press conference…
ASSE is preparing to formalize the return of Irvin Cardona and other reinforcements should arrive in Forez by February 3. Will central defense be affected, with Mickaël Nadé, Dylan Batubinsika, Yunis Abdelhamid and Anthony Briançon as the only real specialists? With Abdelhamid disappointing since his arrival, and Briançon no longer seeming to really fit into the plans, many observers believe that a reinforcement for the hinge would not be a luxury. But this Friday, at a press conference, Eirik Horneland was invited to talk about the performances of Batubinsika, who had preceded him in front of the media, and he was complimentary.
“Dylan gains confidence in himself”
“I’m happy with Dylan,” he said. He has just had two good matches. For me, he has the level to do well in L1, he is athletic, he jumps high, he goes fast. I find that Dylan is making progress, he is gaining confidence in himself. He must be more confident in the phases of possession, in his restarts and his transmissions, like the team, but I find that he is getting better and better with the ball. It's interesting. He makes a good impression on me. » Comments which suggest that the arrival of a central defender is not a priority for Horneland this winter, with Mickaël Nadé seeming well established.
