He is a naturally right-footed left winger but can also deploy as a No.9 in certain situations. Last season, he spent time with Rochdale through a flexi-loan in January and made 10 appearances for the club.

Offering a long-term contract to a youth prospect indicates that the player can contribute to the first team in the coming years.
