Heavily capped Dutch U21 international Ernest Poku came to Bayer Leverkusen this summer with the full expectation of playing under a Dutch head coach. While that may not exactly worked out as planned, but the 21-year-old can still absolutely be satisfied with the way in which his Bundesliga career has begun.
After impressing off the bench in three consecutive matches under new B04 head coach Kasper Hjlumand, Poku appears to have earned a regular starting spot. The former AZ Alkmaar man has started on the left-hand-side of the top attacking axis in the last Bundesliga and Champions League fixtures.
Poku is also on a roll, scoring in his last two Bundesliga appearances.
