Salomon Kalou, the new signing of Hertha Berlin, wants to take his side to DFB-Pokal glory in the ongoing season.
Kalou, the 29-year old forward, has been going great guns for Berlin since his joining. He’s already had 3 goals under his belt in the 5 games that he has featured in the German league.
His match winning strike versus VfL Wolfsburg the previous month was sensational and then, he scored a couple more versus Stuttgart too the other day.
Kalou is presently on international break, but, he is going to return from that pretty soon after which he has to play two Bundesliga matches, but, the forward has his eyes set on the Pokal fixture versus Bielefeld.
Kalou has achieved Cup glory with his past clubs as well. He won FA Cup with Chelsea in England quite a few times. So, he has been there before and he wants to get there again with Berlin.
Speaking in an interview last evening, Kalou said, “It’s my dream to see my team in the title round and we are not too far away from that. You see if we beat Arminia, it will just be a matter of three matches. Of course, we can’t underestimate anyone, but, we are very confident with what we have got.”
When asked about him being in great form at his new club, the Ivory Coast International, who has been a European Cup winner as well, said, “I don’t think I am right up there as of now. There are things missing in my game still, but, it’s all about time when you make your way to a new place. As the days go by, you improve.”
Kalou previously used to play for the French top tier club Lille OSC.
Ivory Coast Dangerman!
