"In the medium term I see him in a structure of the highest level with demands of the highest level.
"He has the potential and all the qualities required to settle at a top club some day."

"After a good season, you always have to confirm that quality leap and it would be easier for him to do it here.
"I think that he has one or two stages left before making the jump for a big club.
