The Egyptian international is keen on playing regular first-team football which is currently not a possibility at Borussia Dortmund.
The German champions have been in scintillating form again this season and are well on course for challenging Bayern Munich to retain the Bundesliga title. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robert-Lewandowski-c31255 has been the star for the Borussians who, in the absence of injured Lucas Barrios, has been in inspiring form.
The Polish international has cemented his place in the starting line-up in the first-half of the season which is the main reason http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lucas-Barrios-c22533 wants an exit at the end of the campaign. Jurgen Klopp deploys only one striker in his 4-2-3-1 formation, thus, Barrios and Zidan have been relegated to the bench for most of the campaign.
Zidan claimed that he needs to play regular football at this juncture of his career and that he cannot afford to be bench-held at the Signal Iduna Park anymore. He revealed that if fellow striker Barrios leaves the club, he would most likely stay as the side needs back-up in the attacking department.
“I am now 30 and I want to be playing regularly and not be second or third choice much longer. Dortmund will only release me if Barrios stays, though. It's either http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lucas-c22528 or me - only one of us can leave,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The former Hamburg SV striker added that he loves his current club and does not want to leave after winning the first league title of his career. He admitted that Die Borussen will always be close to his heart because of what the club have done for him and is hopeful of a successful season ahead.
“In my heart, I will always be a Borussian. I love this club and I won my first league title here. Dortmund will always be something special to me,” he concluded.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mohamed-Zidan-c26404 has made 64 league appearances for the Dortmund based club thus far and scored 13 goals in the process. The Egyptian has been linked with a return to Hamburg SV in the ongoing January transfer window.
