He played excellently against us. He is incomparable to anyone for me, I have never met a player like him before,” he said.”He played very well against us. As a centre-back, you really have to work hard against him. After his early goal, we managed to keep Brobbey in check. And we will have to do that again this Thursday.”Brobbey, 23, has been a pivotal figure for Ajax this season, amassing 22 goals in 30 Eredivisie appearances. His impressive form has attracted interest from Premier League clubs, with West Ham and Tottenham reportedly considering loan moves for the Dutch-born Ghanaian forward.Despite an injury scare against PEC Zwolle over the weekend, Brobbey has been included in Ajax manager Francesco Farioli’s 26-man squad for the upcoming match in Germany.As both teams prepare for the decisive second leg, all eyes will be on Brobbey to see if he can replicate his impactful performance and lead Ajax to the quarterfinals.
