He's still only turned 20 last month, so he's got plenty of time to develop. Even if he doesn't make it into our first team, he's setting himself up for a decent career.
Fabrice Hawkins has brought Arnaud Kalimuendo back into focus, with Rennes reportedly willing to let him go if the bid is €30-35m Monster Energy Dusseldorf, Villarreal and Twattingham Forest also reportedly interested In other news, Ilya Zabarnyi's agent seems to be namedropping us a lot, which is definitely not linked to PSG's interest in his 10% client
Fabrizio Romano and Gary Jacob both say that LAFC are looking to bid for Sonny Bild and the Torygraph are ramping up talk of Joao Palhinha joining us Meanwhile, Douglas Luiz has no-showed Juventus' pre-season training
