Let’s start off with a player i have been following for a little while. Ikome Loïs Openda,the current
U-21 international has been doing bits ever since his loan move from Club Brugge to Vitesse. Openda has 4 goals and 1 assist in 8 apps for his club this season. More


Vitesse who sit second in the Eredivisie behind Ajax has been lovely to watch,Openda,Tannane Riechedly Bazoer and Armando Broja the standout players in the team. Openda has been so good that he is getting interest from
who he can represent trough his mother.

For me it’s only a matter of time before he makes a big jump to one of the top 5 leagues in europe. If i had to pick a team that he would fit perfectly i’d go for LOSC Lille. Lille need a new number #9 after Osimhen’s 80 M departure to Napoli this summer.
Lille got in Yilmaz but he isn’t the youngest anymore,35 years of age still scoring but it would be no surprise if Lille go in for a new striker this summer hence why i recommend them to take a look at Openda. He’d fit their style of play as well looking at the attributes-
he possesses. Speed,finishing,dribbling,strength are all attributes that stand out the most from Openda. He might not be the talles but he certainly is very strong on the ball.
Last but not least comparable player to Openda: For me if i had to say someone that is very comparable to Openda i’d say Marcus Thuram from Borussia Mönchengladbach. Not really a surprise because they occupy same positions,LW,ST,RW. Openda can play all of those positions-
but is for me personally better at number #9 where he gets tye freedom and where he is mostly comfortable and strong at.
