During the World Cup, Mauricio Pochettino invited Mathis Albert to the team’s camp in Orange County.
The coach spent an hour with the Borussia Dortmund prospect, instilling belief that his time would come.
“I had a good conversation with Poch,” we spoke for like an hour, but he really trusts me. He’s one of the best coaches I’ve ever had. He gives me all the confidence, trusts me. Like before I played today, he just told me: ‘Go create chances. You have all the freedom.’”
“It feels like home and family here. I’m just happy to be a part of it.”
