"He will join one of the clubs with best reputation in Europe when it comes to youth development."
"Long term it's a loss for AGF, but in the short term, we have got a good deal."
The winger is delighted with the move to France and added: "It's terrific and feels a bit unreal
"I didn't have big expectations for the trial, but a coule of days afterwards, Lille returned and said that they wanted to sign a contract with me."
