Maybe we were looking for a step up in their loan placings to give them a little more time to prove themselves? I guess no one wanted them so we excercised a necessary ruthless streak to get rid of seemingly dead wood. These youngsters just can't all make it. I'm sure there was/is potential there but they will have to find another way. Bah!
Simon Power impressing in the Dutch second tier: Hadn't realised his loan out there was potentially for 18 months, there's a deal in principle for him to spend all of next season there too.
https://www.canaries.co.uk/News/2019/february/academy-stars-commit-futures-to-norwich-city/ Set of academy stars have signed professional deals with the club, including Spyrou! No Idah though, should we be worried?
Happy with a lot of those. Idah is my next hope for first team football, I've been annoyed he hasn't been given a go in the cup or off the bench. You can't fault what the regime are doing with the youth. He seems like he could be an amazing impact sub. we don't have a lot of striker options, and he is so different to our first team strikers. He strikes me as the next Bellamy. We have missed a pacey striker since Jackson!
Article on our new 18 year old winger signed in January: https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2019/03/...er-gassan-ahadme-compares-himself-to-cristia/ Could be an exciting prospect if he can get anywhere near the Ronaldo he admires.
Ahadme's first game for U23's against Man Utd. Scores and some nice touches... Looks like another find!
That was his second game, his first was against Forest and he scored in that as well. He is reported as being Spanish but I believe be is actually Morrocan, though playing in Spain.
Something similar on the last day of the season would make a nice, emphatic end to proceedings for Daniel and Co
Under 23s come back from 2-0 down t draw 2-2. Idah with both goals. I'll try and post a report when I see one. Edit - https://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/norwi...ch-city-as-under-23s-draw-at-colney-1-5931696
What an achievement by Idah and for a chance to see him in action, get your free tickets for the last under 23 game this season at CR on Friday 12th April at 7pm . If you can’t get to Chapelfield or the ticket office, I think they charge £1.50 to post them to you. Note Kick off time DD!! I'd love to see him go on loan to a Championship/Dutch club next season.
Really interested in this. I really think he's got talent. Go out there and prove it! Will be keeping an eye out for Wrexham games. What is a "youth loan" though? Not heard of that. How is it different to a normal loan?
Isn't it something to do with whether you are still on a 2 year 'youth contract' before you sign a professional one?
