– I joined the Panthers because of the opportunity that presented itself. I talked to God, my family and close friends about it. They all support my decision and my gut feeling influenced me to commit. I’ll be teaming up with my consigliere from college which is going to be epic. I was a Carolina Panther now I’m a Wrocław Panther. The club has like-minded individuals. The members have been informative, resourceful and – most important – welcoming. I’ve been in touch with some coaches and staff in the meantime and everyone is excited to have me join the family. The city of Wrocław is known for its unique environment. The city is captivated. The facility is unique, everything is at the stadium which is very convenient. I look forward to being a part of something special this upcoming season. Get your popcorn ready and bring the energy. I’ll see you at work! – says Matt Cole himself.
