Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for Germany switch
Bella-Kotchap is expected to sign with Hoffenheim, according to Sky Sports.
ANALYSIS
Bella-Kotchap was not expected to have a large role at Southampton, so the move to the Bundesliga makes sense for him. He should be able to see consistent minutes in Germany's top-tier league, and at 22 years of age, he should have enough potential to believe he can continue growing.
