Ihattaren's impressive performance has seen him score three goals and provide two assists in the season so far. He was instrumental in Fortuna's victory, scoring two goals and setting up another. The 24-year-old's strong start to the season has seen Fortuna Sittard rise to fourth place in the Eredivisie after five matches.
Fortuna's trainer, Danny Buijs, has advised Ihattaren to focus on his core responsibilities first, suggesting that he should keep a low profile to achieve his goals. Buijs made this comment after the match, explaining why Ihattaren did not appear in front of the media.
