I doubt he'd get a game ahead of Sterling, Sane or KDB.
they wouldnt play every game.

it's still 2 seasons until it becomes a concern. let him continue to tear it up in scotland for a season, get the play a bit of cl and come back high on confidence.

Lacazette was a lot better after January than he was before wasn't he? Pretty sure I've seen him mentioned a lot more since he was linked to Newcastle back them. Lyon obviously rate him as worth more because of more recent output.
But even then he has been very good over the course of the last 2-3 years which is why I was shocked they almost sold him for 25, which I consider a very good deal.

If that's the case maybe he needs more development before he returns. Kid has only started 13 games in his career, and for me would struggle with the physical nature of the Premier League. Not sure we need to be rushing him into the first XI just yet.

In 12 months I could definitely see him fighting it out with a Sane or Sterling.

He's easily got as much potential as either of them.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him score 20+ goals next year for Celtic.
First team experience is great for any young player. However, the SPL is of a similar standard to League 1. I'm sure City have big plans for him but I don't know why he hasn't been loaned to a championship club.

I think even a championship loan would have been too much for him when he went to Celtic. He wasn't getting a game for Fulham before we bought him and he was very lightweight. But I think in hindsight, if we could have sent him to Celtic last season, and then to a championship side this season it would have been better. But they wanted 18 months or nothing and I guess he'll get some European experience.

They think they can get at least $40M from PSG if Zlatan moves on apparently.

We're moving onto other targets. Might end up with Callieri from Boca Juniors.

So apparently we're going to rebid for Wilson and Ritchie again. But the Guardian is reporting that Spurs have interest in Callum Wilson also.
