I know he's our player in terms of the deal being locked in, but we can't sign him until he's 18 can we?He's our player but they agreed for him tom stay there for now.
Looks like we move him in J`nuary
Of course you do, petal
Maybe a year in the Dutch or Belgian league before moving to the Bayernleague, and finally to us.Yup.
Which other leagues give minutes to young players and have a faster pace?
France?
Netherlands, Portugal, Belgium and Austria are probably the next step up (below top leagues but decent at developing players).Yup.

Would favour Holland, due to weather adaptation, Croatia lovely and warm as is Portugal, get him used to colder Winter/general climate… and, ensure he gets plenty of Vit D.Would probably prefer Portugal over Holland. They know how to develop a CB in Portugal.
Maybe we could send him to Wolfsburg
Think the fee is locked in, the concern is he needs to get a Visa or we can’t register him in the U21’s immediately and he won’t end up HG.I know he's our player in terms of the deal being locked in, but we can't sign him until he's 18 can we?
So essentially he's a Hajduk player, with a future transfer agreed (rather than a Tottenham player remaining at Hajduk on loan), until that point, and so I find it quite good of them to be loaning him out for our benefit, when they would be better off keeping hold of him and utilising him themselves.
That said, I guess part of the agreement is that we can dictate the how he is handled over the next couple of years, also whatever the Visa requirements are mean they need to ensure he is able to get one come that time or they don't get their fee.
Yeah fee would be locked in with a pre-agreement deal. Essentially the deal should go through on the first day of the 2025 summer transfer window. There won't be any problems with Visas when he joins because there's an exemption now that allows Prem clubs to sign up to 4 over-18 overseas players that don't meet Visa requirements so don't have to worry about that when choosing who to loan to. Once he joins he would be on the u21 list for Prem and take up a non-locally trained spot for UEFA but he could become both home-grown for Prem and club-trained for UEFAThink the fee is locked in, the concern is he needs to get a Visa or we can’t register him in the U21’s immediately and he won’t end up HG.
Football Chap how does it work if he turns 18 (16 presently, turns 17 February 24th) ? So 2025/6/7 he needs registering as U21 I think.
Guess that means January loan can be more of a gamble (ie. If a bigger club wants him but he might not immediately play, we’ve got another 12/18months play to ensure he’s considered Visa worthy?
He'll only be 17 or so.
Eredevisie might be a good loan. Would probably preach playing football out from the back. Anywhere that allows him to play 90 every week but a step up from Croatian league would be beneficial really.
Nah, never been to Portugal.Thinking of drinking some wine and eating some pastels de nata. Seen some cheap flights to Wolfsburg - anyone been?

Jude was 16 when he was playing for Birmingham. Getting this lad playing for a team like Dortmund at 17 would be absolutely perfect development.
We are, it's just ASAP is Summer 2025Get him in ASAP, looks perfect for our system of play, ange, romero and big ben will work wonders with him
