Anderlecht seem to have some great youth prospects.
Doku, Sardella, Verschaeren, Kana & Lokonga.
Could you see all of these going on to have big careers. I’m aware Doku and Verschaeren are already in and around the national team. Do you think the others have what it takes?
Do you think any could make the grade at City?
Doku is an exceptional talent. Club choices and injuries aside, I think he will have a huge career.
Verschaeren had a very good debut season when he was 17 years old, 2 seasons ago.
But last season he had a set back, and he got an injury of several months. So its an important season for his development this year.
Same situation for Sambi Lokonga. Very important season for him and his development. Debuted strong 3 years ago, but had a terrible injury, that sidelinded him for almost 1 year. But he came back strong, but had a set back after he signed a new contract. He got benched in the beginning of this season, got the start last weekend, and was the best man on the pitch. Very beautiful style this player.
Kana and Sardella still have alot to prove, but didnt play on their natural position last season.
Sardella is a central defender, but only 1m80 in height (6'0) , and thats nit really bigg for a central defender. Debuted last season as a 17 year old as a right back, and had some really good, but also really bad games.
Kana is a defensive midfielder, but played last season as a central defender. Very bigg prospect in my eyes as a defensive midfielder, but played some bad games this season.
Lots of talent, and the best is yet to come. Very good u15 team comming. With some players who play with the u21 's of Bellamy allready. Bounida the biggest propspect comming.
Mario Stroeykens also a prospect to watch. And Lavia was on that level, so hope he can develop good with you guys.
So I think, if al goes well, Doku can get the Man City level. All the others will get nice careers, Leicester City or Wolverhampton level. But to get to the level Man City has today, lots of steps have to be taken.
