Marco Rose and Michael Zorc credit Donyell Malen

Coach Marco Rose and sports director Michael Zorc have criticized BVB newcomer Donyell Malen after the 1: 2 at RB Leipzig, after the striker has not yet been able to show himself as the reinforcement expected for Borussia Dortmund.

“For Donny, it’s about getting used to the Bundesliga, the pace, the physique,” explained coach Rose, but immediately added: “He also has to work on his mindset. It is important that he also works against him Ball spends a lot of energy in order to get into other situations. “

And Zorc was also disappointed with the performance of Malen, who came to the Black and Yellows in the summer for 30 million from PSV Eindhoven and has only scored a meager goal in 17 competitive games so far.

“It is obvious that Donny is not yet showing what we hoped for. He radiates too little goal danger and offers too little. We have to work with him on that,” affirmed the sporting director in the kicker.
