My choice would be:

IN

Rayan Vitor - Vasco de Gama
Kees Smit - AZ Alkmaar
Abdelhamid Ait Boudlal - Stade Rennais
Oscar Mingueza - Celta de Vigo

OUT
Krafth, Willock, Osula.

Keep Schar & Tripz until the end of the season.[/QUOTE]

The need for another Left Back, an understudy to our 21 yr old (mental age) worldie Hall, is something I feel is as important as the 4 above.

In an ideal world. The club would sign all 4 of the above in Jan.

Rayan, Kees, & Oscar would come into the squad replacing the 3 going out. Abdelhamid would be loaned back to Rennais until the end of the season.

Left backs to target in Jan:

You can check out the Mango's reports on these lot by searching his channel video results for their names.


Antonio has also put together this list - None of the 4 are the finished article and will need coaching but all offer a far more appropriate option when replacing Hall than Wor Geordie Legend BDB.

Youth players not much in the way of stats or metrics.
Lucas Jetten - playing for Jung Ajax technical, tactic and composed. Not a power house, pace and skill.

David Cordon Mancha - Davinchi
Do love the Spanish lad's name though Davinchi.
Davinchi has also been playing first team football this season for Getafe in La liga @ just 18 yrs old.
Technical and very similar to Hall's profile.

Juan Arizala - He's a 20 yr old Colombian winger who played for his nation at youth level at Left back where he thrived.
Versatile & adaptable player. A great athlete.

Kassoum Ouattara - Monaco - 21 yrs old.
A seriously Rapid fella! He's spots the 3rd man run opportunities highlighting his Key attribute, the ability to stretch the game when attacking.
He's a solid defender, blocks, tackle and interceptions.
He's an athlete, a physical specimen.
