He said: "I left for France the day after we played in the Champions League against Young Boys.

"I stayed up the entire night just packing boxes.

"When I got to Rennes, I had about four training sessions before I played my first match.

"I have to express my gratitude to the manager for picking me and for my teammates for trusting me in such a short period of time."
