In the summer there were many rumors that Obama will change the club.

"I had a vacation and I did not want to be distracted. But I had to. It was very funny, especially when advised - do it, do it ... It's just amazing, "Obama said in an interview with Welt.

Father Pierre-Emerica allegedly visited China, where he was negotiating the transfer of his son.

"My father was never in China. Although, of course, China is a variant of continuing a career. I think it's normal that you think about it when you are offered a lot of money. I know, many people say that China should not go over, because in football it's a step backwards. But I think that anyone would have thought, if he had received such an offer. I had an offer from China, but I decided to refuse ".

"Will I go to another club?" No one knows what the future is preparing for us. None of the clubs that wanted me, could not convince Borussia. So I'm staying here and very happy about it.. In Dortmund, I feel at home ".

Obama was able to excel in the first official match of the season - a duel for Germany's Super Cup against Bayern, but his team eventually lost on penalties & ndash; 4: 5.
