Kasius has played 87 official matches for the Alkmaar team since he came over from Italian Bologna in 2023. This season he had a starting place in coach Maarten Martens’ team, until he suffered an ankle injury.
“This is always a great moment to experience,” says Kasius in an explanation. “I’m doing everything I can to get back on the field as soon as possible.”
Modern ‘wingback’
“In today’s football you see more and more types of backs like Denso, who can cover the entire right flank with speed and footballing ability and can also get into the box,” says director of football affairs Max Huiberts. “That style fits very well with our way of playing. With the level that Denso has reached this season, he has become an important factor in the team.”
AZ will be back in action in the Conference League on Thursday. Maarten Martens’ team will then play, without the injured Kasius, in Kosovo against FK Drita. Kick-off is at 6:45 PM and you will stay informed about everything about this match via our live blog.
