Hütter warns Can Uzun: He could stand in his own way

Eintracht Frankfurt head coach Adi Hütter assessed Can Uzun's situation at a press conference ahead of their match against Borussia Dortmund. Hütter said Can Uzun is a very talented player, but he needs to contribute more to the team as a whole.

In 5 Bundesliga matches this season, Can Uzun has played 414 minutes and scored 2 goals, and he has been one of the names the head coach has highlighted. Hütter said football is a team sport and that talent must be used within that structure. Otherwise, he said, obstacles could form in his career.

Hütter also pointed to consistency as another key issue. He stressed that the player needs to bring his talent onto the pitch regularly, in both training and matches.

The head coach said that everyone has the chance to make the starting XI, and that what matters is giving the best of himself in training. Hütter added that he has talked with the player about this many times before and has been there to support him. He also said he wants the player to understand that football has two sides and that it is a team sport.
