I believe in the project and I think we have everything we need to achieve our objectives". Doukouré defines himself as "a player with physical abilities, with an intense game and skill on the ball", which will give Leganés everything they need in his position. For Cheick, "now it's time to work, do things right and play everything on the pitch".
