I noticed that, he is the only young primavera age player that was put on the first team section, so its not something done carelessly with several others. Quite odd if they trust him enough to put him in the first team, even if he might hardly play.
Btw, its VERY nice to see the first team being updated, and seeing our trio of youngsters and Amauri there. Knezevic and Mellberg too.
