"We would like to thank Jordan for his many years of service to Hertha BSC," Hertha sporting CEO Fredi Bobic remarked in a statement released on the club website, "As a player from our academy, he made the step up to the professional ranks and was able to gain a lot of experience with us. Now, with the move to Gent, a new chapter in his career begins. We wish him nothing but the best in his future endeavors."
