Since arriving for a reported €12million fee, Ibrahim Maza gave his first words in a Bayer Leverkusen shirt on a sunny morning at the BayArena.
“I have to say, it’s an incredible feeling. This is something very special here,” he said, speaking on Leverkusen’s social media account.
“The stadium is incredible, the pitch is incredible, and the club is incredible. I’m very happy,” Maza added.
The Algerian is keen to demonstrate his talents for Die Werkself next season and show he is capable of performing at this level.
“Now I want to prove myself on the big stage at a top European club. I’m really looking forward to Bayer 04, to the special, close-knit stadium with its great atmosphere, and to a team that has impressed me greatly in recent years.
“Here in Leverkusen, I can continue to develop and win titles—that’s what drives me,” the 19-year-old explained.
