“So that is also important. He’s really young. He’s good in the air, he’s good at running the channels, good on the ball. I think he has great potential. I think he can improve a lot and, for sure, he is going to feel at home in our club.
“He has the right character to be in this group, so I’m really happy to have him.”
He added: “That is important. He is going to notice, since the first day and first training, that he is in the right place.
“He is going to a new building [at Carrington], that is also important. Things are getting better but, in the end, we need to win games.”
