By all accounts he looks like a good young player, but i'm not sure I see the logic in it. He's so similar to Xhaka, as is Koopmeiners who was also linked.
I'm not sure why we're linked to so many deep midfielders. We already have Xhaka, Torreira, Ceballos and Guendouzi who all do most of their stuff around the half-way line. They're not players who spend much time on the edges of the oppositions box.
Don't we need a midfielder who takes up positions a bit higher up the pitch?
Because we're selling Guendouzi and Ceballos is a Madrid player. Si we only have 2 CMs and Xhaka is not a DM.
