Ridle Baku fills in at right-back, but prefers to play in midfield
Ridle Baku is hoping that he will eventually be moved from right-back to midfield at Wolfsburg.
Since joining Wolfsburg from Mainz at the beginning of this month, Ridle Baku has been used as a right-back, filling in for Kevin Mbabu and Willian, who are both injured at the moment.
Ideally, though, the versatile 22-year-old would like to play as a box-to-box midfielder.
"I can certainly play there. But I can imagine playing in midfield again at some point. I actually prefer to play as a number eight," Baku admitted in an interview with Sportbuzzer.
Baku and Wolfsburg take on Arminia Bielefeld on Sunday.
