Some thoughts on Town’s amazing signing of Terrence Kongolo
Huddersfield Town have signed Terrence Kongolo from Monaco for an undisclosed fee, rumoured to be in the region of £17m. The Dutch international joins Town on a permanent basis after an influential loan spell in the second half of last season, where he quickly became a fans’ favourite.
Here are a few of my thoughts on the transfer...
The difference last season
It’s not a coincidence that Town conceded far fewer goals when Kongolo was involved. The left back position had become a source of concern for Town, with Löwe’s form being wobbly and Malone looking erratic. While left back isn’t Kongolo’s preferred position, he adapted to it well and we looked a lot more solid when he came in.
Don’t believe me? Check out this stat:
Goals conceded per game without Kongolo: 1.63
