Speaking after signing the loan deal, Sekidika told the club's official website : "Thank you for giving me this opportunity. Much obliged. I know the size of Konyaspor and what kind of a community it is. I'll do my best here. Thank you for everything.
"From the first moment I came to the club, I came across many beautiful things. They made a very nice welcome, everyone was very friendly. I even called my wife, we talked to her.
"When we came to the stadium, Konyaspor Club gave a gift that I will never forget. My wife was also very happy with this situation.
"Of course, I will pay you for these during the season. I hope we will all be happy together".
Sekidika has been handed the number 71 jersey at Konyaspor for the remainder of this season.
