Hertha’s Cuisance Praises Teen Star Eichhorn, Warns Sustaining Success Is Hard

The playmaker invokes his bumpy early career to caution the breakout midfielder about repeating a strong first season.

Overview

  • From Hertha’s training camp in Portugal, Michaël Cuisance called 16-year-old Kennet Eichhorn’s performances outstanding and said the bigger test comes next season.
  • Cuisance urged the youngster to mature, saying he must become a man, while noting he himself made many mistakes early in his career after a high-profile move to Bayern.
  • Eichhorn has secured a starting spot for Hertha at 16, has drawn outside interest, and recently scored his first senior goal in the 6–1 cup win over Kaiserslautern.
  • Cuisance is in form with two goals and four assists this season and has been restored to his preferred No. 10 role, which he says lets him influence games more freely.
  • He extended his contract at the end of last season and emphasized promotion as the priority, adding that if it does not work, we have to talk.
