VfB Stuttgart coach Pellegrino Matarazzo has heaped praise on Silas Wamangituka after an impressive start to the season, which has seen the 21-year-old grab two goals and an assist in three Bundesliga games.

"He's an incredible talent," Matarazzo said in an interview with Kicker and continued:

"He's fast always safe on the ball, has improved his first and second touch, he loses the ball less often and has developed his understanding of when to run in behind. He's on a very good path."

The Congolese forward scored seven times and made eight assists in 29 games in the 2. Bundesliga last season.
