Bows out against Napoli
Bella-Kotchap recorded two tackles (one won), two clearances and two interceptions in 55 minutes in Saturday's match versus Napoli before exiting due to an apparent thigh injury, Gianluca Di Marzio reported.
ANALYSIS
Bella-Kotchap had a physical and busy shift, picking up a decent amount of stats, but left early in the second half and limped off clutching the back of his thigh. He's set for tests ahead of next Sunday's away match versus Bologna. The coach picked Martin Frese over Nicolas Valentini to take his place in the back in this one.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for Germany switch
Bella-Kotchap is expected to sign with Hoffenheim, according to Sky Sports.
ANALYSIS
Bella-Kotchap was not expected to have a large role at Southampton, so the move to the Bundesliga makes sense for him. He should be able to see consistent minutes in Germany's top-tier league, and at 22 years of age, he should have enough potential to believe he can continue growing.
