“He deserved it [the United job]. Ten Hag has been very important to me personally,” Brian Brobbey said.
The Ghanaian striker continued, “Under him I became the footballer, the man I am today. The coach talked to me a lot. He’s been very critical, in a good, constructive way. I won’t forget that anytime soon.”
