Striker Caleb Ekuban struggling to score goals for Genoa

Things changed for Ekuban, a former Trabzonspor player when Shevchenko took over the team. Ekuban played 90 minutes in the last 3 games under the coaching of the former Ukrainian star, but still failed to score or assist. 

Ekuban, who was transferred to Genoa despite all the insistence of Trabzonspor, still could not meet a goal despite the 11th week in the Italian league.

Ekuban, who became the constant name of the starting 11 after the famous Ukrainian striker Andriy Shevchenko took the helm of Genoa, still could not score a goal or make an assist. 

Ekuban, who was not included in the last match before Shevchenko took over, took the field at 11 against Roma in the first week and took 90 minutes after the Ukrainian coach took over.

Genoa lost this match 2-0, while Ekuban took 90 minutes in the match they drew 0-0 with Udinese, and stayed on the field for the entire 90 minutes in the 3-0 match they lost against Milan yesterday.

While Genoa is in 18th place with 10 points collected in 15 games, he scored 17 goals in total and conceded 29 goals. Ekuban had never spent 90 minutes in a game before Shevchenko.
