Real Madrid star, Jude Bellingham, has praised Black Stars head coach Otto Addo for his influential role in developing young players during their time together at Borussia Dortmund.
Bellingham, who joined Dortmund at 17, lauded the club’s effective approach in integrating and nurturing young talents, citing them as leaders in European football for their methods.
“The way Dortmund integrates young players into the first-team squad is next level. There isn’t a club in Europe that does it quite like them. The way they are pushed and can also be reeled back in. They review your performances,” Bellingham was quoted as saying by The Guardian.
“There is a person there for every player, especially Otto [Addo], the former Dortmund and Ghana striker, who has worked with the young players. He is great,” he added.
He particularly acknowledged Otto Addo, who previously served as a transition coach at Dortmund, for his personal support and mentorship. “There is a person there for every player, especially Otto [Addo], who has worked closely with the young players. He is great,” Bellingham added.
