Speaking in his first interview with the club, Bassey said "I know Viktoria very well, it's a big club with big ambitions. When this opportunity presented itself, I did not hesitate. It is a huge challenge for me, we have big games in Europe and in the league and I will do everything to be an asset to the team.
