BVB trainer Edin Terzic praises Youssoufa Moukoko in the highest tones. After Timo Werner’s absence, the 17-year-old is a promising candidate for the World Cup squad.

“Youssoufa is doing exceptionally well. He seems fit and stable, is very confident and has improved his game significantly,” Terzic said at the press conference (via table football) before the game against VfL Bochum.

Looking ahead to the World Cup, he added: “If someone improves Borussia Dortmund’s game, it’s only a matter of time before it becomes an issue for the national team.”

At the same time, the BVB coach stated: “It’s not my job to evaluate what role he could play in the World Cup. My job is to evaluate what I think he’s capable of.” Hansi Flick himself has “enough expertise and experience” to be able to assess whether the teenager can help the DFB team in Qatar.

At BVB, the young attacker has managed to force new signing Anthony Modeste onto the bench in recent weeks. Moukoko has already recorded four goals and four assists this season. “We’re particularly pleased that Youssoufa is injury-free for the time being, that he’s performing, scoring and preparing goals,” said Terzic, pleased about his protégé’s good condition. “We will continue to accompany him on this path.”
