The final Cope Libertadores is 20th / 27th July.Great news.
Wonder how long he has been playing without a break. Not sure when South American League dates run from/to.
Is it likely that he will go/join up on the pre-season tour to China?

Good news that the deal is done. Strange that we're pulling him from the Olympics squad. Can only mean that we want to look at him in pre season rather than loaning him straight out.
I would much prefer having him & Zinchenko available as options for the first team squad along with the most viable of our kids. If we find they aren't being used, loan them out in Jan.
Having young fast skillful wild card players to put in the team or off the bench is much more exciting for the crowd & the oppo don't know them.
Loaning them out doesn't give Pep a chance to improve them.
I'd like to see Patrick Roberts recalled.
