Dortmund loanee expresses dissatisfaction with playing time at Wolfsburg

Bild is speculating that Borussia Dortmund midfielder Salih Özcan's loan spell at Wolfsburg could be cut short.

In an interview with the German tabloid, the 26-year-old makes it clear that he'd like to play more.

"Of course you're unhappy when you don't play, especially when I know I have the qualities to help the team," Özcan told Bild.

“When you don't play, it always makes you think. That's not the case at the moment. I don't want to look into the future right now.”

The fact that Özcan struggles to understand why he doesn't play more doesn't make things any easier.

"I don't really know myself. I can't explain it to myself. I give it my all in training, the coach knows what qualities I have. At the end of the day, the coach decides, I just have to keep going and stay positive. Then I think I'll get my chance," he said.

Özcan has played 361 minutes in 11 appearances for Wolfsburg since joining from Borussia Dortmund last summer.
