Evening all, here’s a breakdown in 90 seconds of everything you need to know about Alejo Veliz now that the move has officially been confirmed by the club for those interested. Exciting young talent who’s already quite well rounded and someone I expect to be in and around the first team a year from now. Could turn out to be some summer this one!

Check out his interview on the website. Honestly almost brought a tear to my eye.
We have players who want to be here.

If this was our first signing, you'd have a point.
In a summer transfer window where we've signed three players, who goes straight into the starting 11, before the season starts, you'd struggle to be more wrong.
Veliz also says his family have come over to England with him.
That should help the settling in process.
He is the kind of player Madrid and Barca will come sniffing around for once he has one good season. Need to Levy hard!
I do rate him from seeing bits and pieces and actually had him earmarked for a potential move, reminds me a bit of Crespo, but this just makes me even surer they're cashing in on Harry tbh, which is devastating still.
Big risk on Argentine players settling, but I think his movement is excellent...fingers crossed.

I thought he spoke very well.
If he plays like that ,he will soon be a favourite.
I'd say if anything, it suggests Kane IS staying for at least another year, as Veliz probably won't be ready for the first team until next Summer...
One for the future.... Along with Phillips and a few others... There are plenty to choose from...
Our 2026/27 Title winning team is gonna be the youngest in history!!
Whitman/Austin/Keely, Udogie, Donley, Dorrington Phillips, Spence, Sarr, Skipp, Devine, White, Lankshear, Scarlett, Felix...
Take yer pick!
It makes more sense as a signing if Kane stays.
He can get a year learning from him before Kane buggers off
More from Ange:
"It will be a while for him, I think. We've just got to let him settle, he's come halfway around the world," said the Spurs head coach. "He's a young guy, it's a fairly different level. He's one we'll invest in in the long-term but I wouldn't expect him to see any minutes in the first part of the season."

Fuck sake. This club.
Yeah, right? Welcome to the club, we're so so pleased you've signed, we've been following your movements for a good while. FYI...you're not actually going to be playing anytime soon buuut we're soooooo glad to have you here!!!
