However, you need to work on your communication. Ozkan speaks little English, making it difficult for him to communicate with his teammates and coaches. It will be interesting to see if the 19-year-old can solve that problem in the coming months.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_Yasin_Ozkan_be_able_to_decide_his_future\"><\/span>Will Yasin Ozkan be able to decide his future?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yasin Ozcan in action (Photo by Ahmad Mora\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;He is trying to bring a style of football, but it is difficult to communicate.
