He’s a good player. Cannot see us paying for him though as it’s not a priority position. We have Reinildo who has been excellent and Cirkin who has put some good performances in since returning, enough to think he can be cover for Reinildo. We should be sorting Cirkin’s contract, he’s also more valuable to us being a home grown player than it would be signing Mendy.
And, even more importantly, it looks like Cirkin can handle the step up, so he's a great understudy to Reinildo that's not going to cost the earth, even with a substantial payrise for the lad. Cirkin looked buxxing to be back playing the other day after Man City, so hopefully his contract can get resolved as it makes the most sense.
