I'm very grateful for that, and the experience of playing in overseas leagues has also had a huge positive impact on my career. The season comes with great anticipation and I am most eager to see the RB Leipzig fans again - they mean a lot to me. We want to achieve a lot and I want to be the first RB RB Leipzig to have a 100-ball club."
