Nathan Tella is frustrated with his lack of playing time at Bundesliga champions, Bayer Leverkusen.
The Nigeria international has struggled to break into Bayer Leverkusen’s first team since his arrival at the club from Southampton last summer.
Tella has also frequently been played out of position by manager Xabi Alonso.
The former Burnley star made 24 league appearances, mostly as a substitute for Leverkusen last season.

The 25-year-old has featured in three league games for Die Werkself this season.
Tella is however determined to play more regularly for last season’s UEFA Europa League finalists.
“It’s frustrating, to be honest. But I spoke to the coach. He assured me that I will get opportunities and that I have to be patient, he told BILD.
“When I get a chance, I have to show myself. I think I’ve done well, and I also think I’m training well.
“Now it is up to the coach to have the confidence to use me. He makes the decisions – and they work well.”.
