The head coach spoke highly of Ejuke along with the other additions to the Hertha Berlin squad, impressed with how positively they have started.

The Super Eagles star only just joined Hertha Berlin on loan from CSKA Moscow and is yet to even start a game for the Bundesliga side, making two substitute appearances which were enough to impress his new head coach.

Sandro Schwarz commented on Ejuke’s progression in just under a month since arriving at Hertha Berlin, “Chidi improves every training session”.

Schwarz’s recognition of Ejuke’s strengths and how they come into play for Hertha Berlin is a good omen for the Nigerian who will be looking to exploit the opportunities coming his way.
