Kudus eyes good second year

The versatile midfielder is looking forward to a good season under new manager Julen Lopetegui, who he claims gives him the freedom to express himself on the pitch.

He told the club's official website:

“His [Lopetegui's] style is how I want to play, how I want to attack as a winger and there is a lot of freedom, which allows me to do that. That is the most important thing for me - that I’m allowed to play how I want to. He has different tactics and a different style, but we are all working together to push the Club to the level where we want it to be."
