The former Montpellier striker also shared his views on Samuel Kalu who has been limited to just three starts in the last ten games in Ligue 1.

“If Samuel Kalu can be regular under his (Rohr) orders? In football, everything is possible, and it also depends on what the coach puts in place . But with work everything is possible and work is what pays in the end,” Utaka submitted.
