"I'm a winger, but I can also play in the number 10 position"

"I'm very happy, after playing at Nijmegen, it's a big step for me to come to Toulouse, I'm really very happy. I'm a winger, but I can also play in the number 10 position, where I do well. I really want to score for TéFéCé. I know there are other Dutch players in the team, Zakaria Aboukhlal, Thijs Dallinga, so I hope I'll have a good relationship with them. I'm going to give everything I've got to score as many goals as possible and have a good season with Toulouse", confided TFC's new recruit.
