Ante Palaversa? Was said he was next Modric. Now he seems to be off to Troyes permanently after about 3 years of loaning out
Feels like the level of in house academy products are improving based on all the recent sales, but those CFG "imports" are in a bit of decline none of them turning into any exciting or getting to a level where we can sell them for 10m or so.
Diego Rosa, Palaversa, Kayky, Couto etc, there was bit of hype around them, but very clear they never hit the first team level, and unlikely to even make back the original buy fee on them.
We used to make bit of profit in the previous "era" with the likes of Harrison, Mooy. mostly miss than hit since those guys.
