Nordsjaelland coach Flemming Pedersen has hailed the immediate impact Isaac Atanga has had in his first season in the Danish top-flight League.
The 19 year old who spent the last three seasons in the youth ranks, has scored in all three of the club’s league games played so far.
The idea was to slowly integrate the Ghanaian youngster in the first team but his quick start has changed those plans and is set to be handed a key role in the ongoing campaign.
“It’s a great start for Isaac,” Pedersen stated after watching the Ghanaian score in Sunday’s 2-0 win over Esbjerg, according to BT.
“We knew well that with his speed and understanding of the game he would create problems for opponents.
“But it is far beyond expectation that he has scored a goal in each of the first three matches. And he should have even netted a brace against Ebsjerg.
“He has really come up with many chances in the first three games, and no one will have doubted if he had even scored six goals at this time.”
