    Celtic would be a great destination, I think he'd be a fan favorite - great workrate & quality/talent

    Looks like a mix of Rogic/Hatate. Can hit a decent free kick aswell.

    I'd take that tbh, with some of the sell on fee's we're agreeing to now (as high as 30%) a buyback doesn't seem so bad.

    Tracking back, tackling and aggression are what stood out most to me in the Granada vid. There’s not much end product in the vid but does look good technically and has decent vision.

    Not one I’m overly excited about but would be happy enough to get him in as he’s versatile - can play anywhere across the front 3 and midfield as well apparently.

    Really like the look of him, he and Jota would cause havoc at all levels and we’ve been crying out for a left footed RW. Could also rotate through the midfield too.

    Look at his compilations from last season, they're not very impressive in an attacking sense. Obviously Jota's weren't the best from Villadolid either, but this guy doesn't strike me as a winger. If anything he looks like a CM. As a replacement for Rogic I'd be happy with this, although it just makes the Mooy signing more baffling because if Collado comes in as a midfielder then we're definitely done in that department.

    He and Jota would likely cause havoc in the locker room too, fighting over the hairdryer.

    Might be guaranteed to start with Olympiakos, where-as he'd start as back-up for us, only reason I could see him not coming here.

    No idea mate... is anyone guaranteed a starting spot? Might be easier to get into the Olympic. team but if ya play well and put the effort in you have a chance with Ange

    If he wants to prove himself Celtic and CL is the only choice between the 2

    Perhaps, but getting more regular 1st team football is far better for a player's development. Oh and the small matter of being based on the Mediterranean coast a stone's throw from Athens. If he has a young lady in tow she may prefer that to the Barras.
     
    EKCelt, JML67 and Jacob knows like this.

    There is a lot of similarities to the Jota deal, a player who was once highly thought off at an academy known for producing talent. Has reached early 20’s with little first team football experience and a fairly underwhelming loan spell at a relegation scraping La Liga side.

    He clearly has a lot of ability on the ball and good vision as well as decent delivery and a good strike on him too.

    If we do want him, a big push on look what it’s done for Jota, even ask him to chat to him about the move.

    Definitely looks more of an attack mid, good vision and passing plus wins the ball back plenty which is what Ange want. Think he’d be a great addition and option for the bench.

    Looks the polar opposite of mooy.

    Should we not be looking at players with more pedigree or not loans deal at least. Now we have had a guaranteed spot in the champions League with a full window to tempt players with.

    We have money to burn, and a chance to make a good European run.
