My thought was either Alexander Skov Olsen, 19yr old Danish left footed forward, decent size, athletic, with great technique, or Elif Elmas, 19yr old Macedonian, good all round midfielder, tenacious and ability on the ball.
We’ve been linked with both in the media.

Because Val said way under 21, I wondered about Harvey Elliot the 15 year old who made his debut for Fulham last season in the League Cup.

Don’t we need more homegrown players though? I’m sure I read somewhere we have an increasing need for hg players.

My bet is Max Aarons.

Yeah, it's the second time Val has made that point which tells me it is a player 15-17 years old.

Overrated issue. We already got rid of 2 in Llorente & Vorm. Sessegnon will count as HG as well. Saliba wouldn't count anyways as he is U21.

If the player is that young, maybe it’s 16 year old Karamoko Dembele at Celtic ?

Kinda hope it is Saliba just to piss the goons off... plus he does look pretty good ?

I think it’s Joao Filipe, the kid from Benfica. We were linked with him a while back and meant to be ‘the next ronaldo’
He's 20 which isn't really well under 21. Are you sure João Felix is not referred to as the new Ronaldo?

Realised he was 20 and deleted my post as thought he was younger. Filipe is definitely the one they are saying is like ronaldo
