Nico Estévez: "Playing for the USMNT could develop Musah's career"

After Yunus Musah's official debut for the United States, VCF Media caught up not only with the player himself, but also the assistant coach of the USMNT, Nico Estévez. The former Valencia CF coach has moved Stateside for an exciting role in the national team setup, and is delighted to be welcoming a player from his former club into the fold.
"I think Yunus is very happy. He felt important on the pitch. Off it, he has a good relationship with his teammates. That backs up the decision that he made, having been in our training camp," he told VCF Media Radio.
"He felt supported and that he is part of the project. He can see that the USMNT could be something that develops his career."
"He's a player who we have seen adapt well to a role in the middle. He played there before at Arsenal, and with VCF Juvenil and VCF Mestalla," continued Estévez.
"Due to the needs of the team, he has adapted to other positions, just like Carlos Soler did before him. I think that if you play in different positions, you develop better and have a series of experiences that help you in the future."
"His experience at Valencia CF is going to be very good for him. It will help him to be a better player, because of the pressure that he will have on him."
