"Nico Williams is a winger profile we really lack. Absolute [--] vs [--] demon who will consistently beat his full back and get to the byline.

"If Kane does go I think getting both Alejo Veliz and Gift Orban is a brilliant succession plan. In Orban you have a perfect Ange [--]. He reminds me of Aguero. - Short sharp movements - Elite ball striking. - Low centre of gravity so he can shift the ball rapidly to shoot"

"With it being international break it's the perfect time to profile our very own Guglielmo Vicario who currently is on international duty with Italy. Italy has produced some top keepers over the years and 'Venom' Vicario is another one who can be added to the list. Vicario is big (6'4/194 cm) giving him a commanding presence. His size in combination with his athleticism agility and reflexes makes him a superb shot stopper. He also has good awareness of when to come off his line as a sweeper keeper and to cut down shot angles. The most important attribute Vicario possesses as a modern keeper"

"Luka also excels in ball carrying. He makes Romero esque runs into the opposition half riding challenges from opposition players and using clever link up play to further progress the ball up the pitch. He's incredibly dominant in the build up phase offering himself up constantly and almost dictating play from there at times. However at times he overplays in this aspect so he'll need to develop his decision making on when to use this"

"Luka is also multifaceted in that he can play as both an LCB and an RCB effectively he's in the class of CBs that I'd call a "highline leader". Think of a Van Dijk Araujo or Saliba. A CB who is able to defend the channels and prevents counter attacks single handedly through their anticipation. This also requires immense amounts of recovery ability which is another thing about Luka he's deceptively quick for a player of his size. This type of physical development in a CB that is only [--] is. There are very very few CB prospects who are this complete Ousmane Diomande is the only one that springs"

"These next 3-4 years are going to be vital in seeing out his development. In my opinion the fact he's not immediately joining Spurs is good for his development he needs a couple of years and a few hundred minutes under his belt before he's properly ready to handle the mental aspect of top level football. I don't think he's ready for serious Premier League minutes yet however Spurs have landed themselves an elite talent one of the best in Europe for sure"
