Yankuba Minteh, the forward currently on loan at Newcastle United, has received the disappointing news that he does not meet the standard required to secure a starting position at Feyenoord. Minteh, who joined the Magpies from Odense Boldklub in Denmark and was immediately loaned to Feyenoord last summer, is a player who manager Eddie Howe has great expectations for. However, despite his promising potential, Minteh has struggled throughout the season. Primarily deployed as a right winger, the 19-year-old has been unable to score a goal since September. Dutch journalists Dennis van Eersel and Dennis Kranenburg attribute Minteh’s lack of success to his poor delivery. Kranenburg expressed his observation, stating, “I have noticed this in him for some time now. He executes a move, appears threatening, but when it comes to delivering the cross, it seems as though he closes his eyes.” Van Eersel chimed in, acknowledging Minteh’s talent and commendable work ethic, but ultimately concluding that he currently falls short of the level required to secure a starting position at Feyenoord.
