Looks strong in the air. Would guess well over half his goals in YouTube video were from headers. Looks to be a big, strong lad for only 19 years old.

If we sign him makes sense to let him stay there and develop as he's unlikely to get many minutes here for a while even if Kane does leave.

Think that's what Brighton did with Mac Allister: sent him on a couple more loans in South America until they felt he was ready to move over. Seems a sensible approach to me.

The loan back would not be terrible - since he would arrive in January, but keep playing now.
It would be beneficial if anything. If Kane is staying for another year having this kid out playing for a few months, then arriving in Jan to acclimatise ready for the following season would probably be the most ideal scenario.

I'd actually read into this as more likely Kane is staying for the season. Seems like a low risk insurance policy. Keep Kane, play Richarlison a lot. Sign Veliz, loan him and Scarlett out and see how they do. If they do well and Kane leaves on a free then we may have a ready made replacement.

Absolutely delighted - it’s almost as if I scouted him for us… lol

I wanted Beltran or Veliz in young striker option . I will settle for Veliz.

19 yr old and been one of the standouts in league this season

Also interesting to note that this his club is the same that GLC is from. GLC's brother currently is a CDM in the same squad as Veliz.

Quality player. Been following this guy since he was a foetus. Went to a private school in the next road to where he lived. Enjoys paddle tennis. 6’4, right footed, strong on the ball, eats a lot of chopped parsley and his girlfriend adores tromboning.

Already better than Tony Cottee ever was. Think Dirk Kuyt and then unthink it. Then think of weeing sideways straight after ejaculation and you’re somewhere near the style he likes to play.

Honestly, the treble is now on.

I done a season on Career mode until I got bored as Rosario Central so I have actually seen this name before 🤣
i'm one of those people who watch too much football from every league if i can and this name was a new one to me, good one on knowing the name. Very interesting though and if it happens then some varied scouting taking place.
