Borussia Dortmund star Jamie Bynoe-Gittens is on the road to greatness, Chelsea legend Joe Cole says.
The former Manchester City player scored twice as the German club swept Club Brugge in a 3-0 victory which got them three points in the new Champions League format.
Bynoe-Gittens now has four goals in five matches this campaign which has caused people to compare him to English footballers like Jadon Sancho and Jude Bellingham who have walked the same path.
Cole shared his opinion into the young English star’s growth at Borussia and why so many other talents want to move to the club.
“Talking to people out in Germany, they want to take the best young players in England, take them out, there’s a pathway.
“Imagine the best 16-year-old in the country now, he’s thinking: ‘Should I sign for Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City? Borussia Dortmund is on the table – well, that’s interesting’.
“He’ll think (Jadon) Sancho, think Bellingham, (Bynoe-) Gittens, it’s a pathway they offer. What we think Celtic should do and what Brugge are trying to do, Borussia Dortmund are already on that next level. They’re managing to do that and also compete, which is incredible. That’s off the back of doing it for so long.”
