15 mil is great business, I imagine there will be add on and sell ons to make that a bit sweeter for Lyon, but as an initial fee it's great for us.

Young defender with great physical attributes that has went abroad and developed his game. The last kid we did that with is now worth 70+ mil.

I'm glad it's cheaper than what was being reported, have only watched the player a couple of times and he seemed a bit dopey at times but he is a fair old unit, similar style to Tarkowski with a bit more pace.

I actually tend to agree mate, i think he's going to need some time and work in the step up, just on what ive seen of him, clever bringing him this year, given we will be hoping he anchors himself in the team from summer 25 onwards.

Was actually surprised there was as much interest in him as there was - Ajax etc - i have a bit of hesitation on how easy this deal was to do also - why are Lyon such willing sellers.

On the flip side, hes made every step up asked of him at every level thus far and if there is one area i trust Dyche its at centre half - hes created some brilliant ones.

Any pictures yet of him in Liverpool ?
It shouldn't be too hard to spot him.

That's him on the right apparently
 

Is the lad actually any good? Has anyone seen him in a real life game of footy? I wouldn't know him from (Charlie) Adam.
