Hugely impressive season…does he get a chance here next season or loaned out?
What’s his actual position? If he plays off the right then there’s definitely a route into the first team for him next season. On the left no, as Gordon and Barnes will eat most of the mins. I don’t think he’s a striker.
As far as I'm aware, he plays off the right. From what I've read (none of the credible outfits, pinch of salt) the plan is to loan him out again, to a 'higher' standard of league. Bundesliga, apparently.
Which would make sense, and offer clear progression if he goes to a lower level team, where he will start most games. However, I do hope he gets at least a run out in the pre season. Like you say, there's an obvious route for him there, even as a breakthrough bench option. If he's not up to speed and needs development, fair enough. Plenty careers have been ruined by that. But be nice to give him a run out and see if, but, maybe.
