Manchester United fullback Alexander Buttner is delighted seeing former Vitesse Arnhem teammate Marco van Ginkel at Chelsea. Buttner admits he spoke to Van Ginkel about the Premier League before his summer switch.
"I immediately told him to go! I play every day against Nani, Antonio Valencia and Ashley Young and Van Ginkel battles with John Terry. Many people are already saying: this guy will be sitting on the bench and will not make it. Believe me: Van Ginkel is going to make it.
"They just need to give him time. It's nice to see that two guys from Vitesse ended up here," Buttner told Voetbalzone.nl.
