Rich192 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 28 minutes ago, HalfTimePost said: Missed a lot ofposts since - but is that definitely how it works as I was fairly confident that they had to spend 3 Years here before their 21st birthday - and obviously Kosta can't quite do so, as he turned 18 at the start of December, so will be a 4-6 weeks short of the deadline to count as Homegrown on his 21st birthday Anyone signed aged 18, and spends three years at a club with no loans out will be homegrown. The wording about before 21st birthday is incorrect, it’s three years before they turn 22. As an aside, Duran will miss out on being Villa homegrown by one month, which is a shame.

CVByrne Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Can you imagine how this kid feels. He gets to join a team with a coach renowned for improving players. Gets a huge amount of money at such a young age and really boosts his chances of playing in Euros this summer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slovenian Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 He gave a short interview before he boarded the plane today. His friends and family call him Kole. I'm getting impression that he's really attached to his family, hope he won't move to Birmingham alone. Savo struggled badly when he moved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it is worth noting that Villa have spent a lot of time, effort and money developing our player support services after a couple of fairly spectacular failures 10+ years ago. Apparently, we have one of the best support teams around who help the players with many of the challenges of either moving away from home or moving country for the first time. I think there's also a pretty good vibe at the club at the moment and quite a few young players in and around the first team squad. All of which should help. I don't know whether he will be impacted by the recent changes in immigration "rules" / guidelines that the Home Office seem to be enforcing which seems to be making it harder for families of people moving to the UK to gain the required approvals. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
