How where your first weeks in Dortmund?
Emre Can: They were positive for me personally. I feel at home in Dortmund after a tough six months. I am enjoying being an important part of a team again and it’s a nice feeling. The boys have really taken me in, and it’s been a positive few months.”
What can Borussia Dortmund expect from you on the
pitch?
They want me to bring some mentality. They want me to get involved and set the tone. I think these are some of my
strengths, but I have come here to Dortmund and I think I have shown people that I can also play football. I try to help the team and I think I was able to do this in the first few games.
