Apparently he is a product of Birmingham Academy who joined Southampton U18s for 20/21 season but obviously failed to impress enough there. Had a trial with us before we signed him and think they aim to use him in Richard Beale's PL2 side and then see if he impresses enough to get any first team football .It's only a one year deal (with further option after that) and guess it is not costing us much and is pretty low risk but, as you say, seems pretty pointless. Even if he turns out to do well in PL2 what are the chances of Bruce giving him his opportunity in the Championship given how he seemed to ignore Cleary despite his number of goals at a time when our first team didn't know where the net was?
