In the previous part we discussed the new signings to look out for in the upcoming season such as Marco Reus and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 have recently made
a good reputation along with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011, of producing a number of high quality youth players, which has improved their league standards and also the quality of their national teams.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luuk-de-Jong-c22956
Age: 21
Club: Borussia Monchengladbach
The Swiss born player plays for the Netherlands international team. His parents were both in the national volleyball team of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Switzerland-c3016. He was the joint-second top goalscorer in the Dutch League last season with 25 goals.
The attacker was heavily linked with English Premier League sides, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 and Newcastle in the summer transfer market but opted to sign for Borussia Monchengladbach. The striker is a goal predator and scores his goals with much
ease, which is welcoming news for the German club.
The forward’s playing abilities are very impressive and his movement and touch resembles to Ibrahimovic’s and Henrik Larsson’s youthful days. The frontman signed for Gladbach on 18 July 2012 on a five-year contract. He will be
asked to fill in for their former superstar, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Reus-c23733.
The Bundesliga outfit paid an expensive fee of €15million for the player, but on the account of his goal scoring exploits, he will be seen as an excellent buy. The 21-year-old scored an amazing tally of 32 goals in 50 games for
the Dutch club.
The Dutchman also has seven caps to his name and has scored a goal in the UEFA European Championships 2012 qualifying match. The hit-man was also selected for the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 squad that participated in Euro 2012. To his dismay,
he did not feature in any match as the Dutch team was knocked out in the group stages.
De Jong has a younger brother, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Siem-de-Jong-c33482 who plays for Ajax. Both of them started their career with De Graafschap. Luuk has netted 62 times in 138 games in his fruitful time at Holland and will be hoping to perform with the
same form for his new club and try to emulate the superb Marco Reus.

Age: 22
Club: 1899 Hoffenheim
Joselu, the Spanish footballer is a young and exciting forward. He was born in Stuttgart, Germany and later moved back to Spain with his family. In 2009, he was snapped up by Spanish giants, Real Madrid, but was asked to spend
the 2009-10 season with former club, Celta Vigo.
The striker has a very good repute in Europe because of his free scoring form in the second-tier team of Real Madrid. He was the Golden Boot winner in the 2010-11 season and attracted interest from foreign teams. Therefore, ambitious
Hoffenheim signed the promising attacker to improve their standings in the domestic league.
Joselu follows in the footsteps of former teammate, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Daniel-c9879 Carvajal Ramos into the German League. The striker will be aiming to make a splash at Hoffenheim. The centre forward has signed a four-year deal with the club and will
be wishing to garner a starting berth with them.
The frontman ran riot and scored 40 goals in 72 matches for Real Madrid Castilla. He has also appeared in Spain’s under-19, under-20 and under-21 national teams contributing four goals altogether.
