He sounds like an insteresting prospect
 
Eliesse Ben Seghir, absolute baller who plays for Monaco. Would be good for us as a no 10. Great dribbler, good in tight spaces and great vision for line breaking passes.

Just YouTubed him, big fan.

Wow this lad looks great. Merely from youtube clips. Looks like he beats a man for fun.
 
Eliesse Ben Seghir is a cracking young talent. He would be a fantastic signing.

Keep an eye on the Greek teenager Konstantinos Karetsas, who will feature against Scotland tomorrow. He is also an incredibly skillful young player with great vision and creativity. Plays for Genk in Belgium where he was born and grew up.

First time I saw him he was superb - since then, have been taking a look through some YouTube videos to catch more of the lad. He came on at half time in the first leg against Scotland, changed the game around pretty much singlehandedly. Certainly one to watch. United would do well to buy him before more take notice and the price goes through the roof.

Seen a fair few links. Definitely an interesting option. It depends on how long Martinez is out for. Heaven has looked good in his first few games. Not sure we will spend big on a young defender. Yoro and Heaven look like we set for the future. Can only see us going for a stop gap option for Martinez

Yeremay, Deportivo. A colourful winger with a great dribbling ability.
However I think is almost done with Chelsea.
He had a reputation for being problematic (Madrid kicked him out of the academy) but now he is very focused and growing as a player.
He was supposed to leave at Christmas, but there was an improved contract and a clause. Now, I think in 25 m€.
Another good option who will soon be in primera is David Mella, Deportivo too.

Is there a winger left in Europe Chelsea haven’t signed
 
A lot of the big European clubs have sent scouts to watch him. He is most likely the next big talent to leave from turkuye after Arda Guler
Would be the exact type of signing we should continue to make. We already have experience on his position (De Ligt, Maguire, Licha), as well as young competitors he can grow with (Yoro, Heaven). It would be another amazing coup by Ineos.
 
Everyone will be after him but Dean Huijsen would be brilliant signing.

He will end up at Madrid though.

Insane how Juve let him go for 15 millioen euro's this summer.. His potential was already widely known and ackknowledged.. Already started as an 18yo as CB in a Mourinho team at Roma, and the Juve CB's arent exaclty world beaters at the moment.. Absolutely shockin decision..

Yip. I'm a big fan of his. He's young but has got good experience and is now really breaking out. He won't be expensive, in fees or wages either. As much as Bruno is amazing and indestructible, we need to think of a future beyond him and it's not Mason Mount. As a 10, I think Ben Seghir or Cherki would be amazing for us.

I also like Franco Mastotuondo who was linked with us one year ago. He's less experienced but I expect him to be cheaper than anyone named. And he's extremely talented.

Juve are probably one of the worst clubs right now though.... they sold him for 15m and signed Lloyd Kelly on loan with Obligation from Newcastle, a player that joined Newcastle on a free. They will end up spending 20m plus for a player that joined Newcastle on a free...

Makes the shocking decision worse.

I also like him. He's been hyped up a lot but seems to have hit a bit of a spell where he's struggled. Don't hear talk of Madrid after him anymore but we continue to be linked.
 
Massive talent. Sad he chose Greece over Belgium.
I can understand that, judging by how the Greeks celebrated his choice. For now, at least he can be enjoyed playing for Genk in the Belgian league...although I do not think he will remain there for long.

He is really talented, Demichellis used him quite a lot, then Gallardo not so much last year and this year he is trying to earn his place. Gallardo certainly isn't making his path easy, he looks like giving on purpose a hard time to make him togher and more team oriented.
So if he ends winning his place, it'll be deserved. So far in this new season 4 matches he played, he did quite great, let's hope he becomes what his talent can provide, which can be quite a lot, he is 17 BTW, still literally growing and already with a nice record with his name, the youngest player in River to score a free kick at 16, before him it was the Master Pedernera with 18.

He would be perfect as a long term successor to Bruno.

How good is he really? Not watched much of Bournemouth but saw the Spain Netherlands game in the background and when he played against us. He looks decent for a 19 year old playing at the highest level i.e doesn't look overawed but nothing screams elite? With his athletic profile and technical ability, he could be promising but it could be also be another Christensen situation.

I'd say the same about Yoro too, although a little less tentatively.

Both would need to show some serious physical growth (muscle density, core strength etc) ala Saliba before I would start getting too hyped on them.

Too green right now, more given how hard he is having it with Gallardo, if he passes this trial, he'll be more suited to start thinking of some experience abroad. In fact nothing would be better for him than do what Alvarez did of really gain a place, to settle in River, have a great season and only there start thinking of winning the lottery with some transfer to Europe.

Huijsen already physically hardly breaks a sweat in the EPL. Yet he hasn't even filled out yet..

Thanks for the update. Makes sense why it appears he has struggled if the coach is pushing him and trying to make him a better team player. I agree that he has the talent and if he develops the application in addition to that, he will be a world beater. I've seen some commentators compare his game to Erik Lamela, that it is his level. Do you think he will develop into same type of level as Lamela or much better if he fulfils his potential?
 
Madrid seem to be after Zubimendi now, which leaves them with a lot of midfielders. Bellingham & Valverde are going to start every game. I wonder if Camavinga or Tchouameni will be up for sale.

Out of the 2 it would be Camavinga they would try and move on, fills in at LB often and usually only plays against the better teams where they can't just shove every attacking player on.
 
Probably it would be both too early and too expensive to go for him, but Eintracht Frankfurt's Kaua Santos could become the next great Brasilian keeper. Still has to establish himself as first choice there (which means replacing the club legend and captain, former German national keeper Kevin Trapp, so isn't easy), but already had a few great performances for them.

I think we are going to see a shift from these types are singings. Camavinga and Tchouameni are undoubtedly both good players and still young, but they would both come with a large price tag and big wages.

I don't know, I don't know also how much bigger he'll get too, he is already 1.80 but still 17, he might get taller, bulkier, dunno, too young. He seems to eager to show himself, he must change that, to not fall in a Lamela "look how fancy I am" cathegory. All in all, I like the kid, I hope also that Gallardo doesn't go over the top and that Placente in the YWC helps him to continue to develope in a more free and less harsh envoriment Rivar can be.

And if Madrid are happy to sell it's an instant red flag.

His forward passing is top notch imo.
For example, he played that ball over the top to Yamals late goal against Netherlands, could not have been more spot on.
He does it consistently for Bournemouth, really helps their attacking players to look good.
 
Another young player who has played all across the right flank for his club, Dilane Bakwa. Great dribbler, good pace and athletic. He would be a great fit for the RWB role and is a good alternative to Roger Fernandes. Only problem is he’s at Strasbourg and Chelsea never saw a winger they didn’t like

If they liked him he'd be theirs already.....
