Pereira is optimistic Arokodare will make more impact at the club.
“When we are expecting a strong shot on the goal, because he has the confidence in himself,”he told the club’s official website.
” Of course, he is not in his shape physically speaking. Larsen today worked a lot for the team, and after Tolu went inside and he helped us. This is the spirit that I want to see.
“Tolu came in the moment that we didn’t have Jorgen to play. The plan was not to play with him 90 minutes, the plan was to give him time to adapt and to start getting minutes. He needs to work hard to get his condition, and he will help us.”
