How we see him
Defends well one against one and recovers quickly when the ball goes over him. Good delivery from wide. Still filling out, so the next step is strength in the duels.
Why your club
You mentioned you need a left back at under-17s for next season. He plays there every week, is the right age and is comfortable playing out from the back the way your side does.
What your academy needs
Every need is different.
You may be planning next season, replacing a player who’s moved on or looking for something specific. Tell John what you need and when. If he represents someone worth considering, he’ll get in touch.
