At Chelsea he never got going, but that’s because they’ve been using him for depth as a versatile utility player, and they are staked in the CB department too, whereas at Basel not sure what was going on but he was being used more often as DM but also as CB many times.
Otherwise with the Portugal NT and U21’s he has played exclusively as a CB, and rightly so due to his size, so wouldn’t be surprised if we go on to use him as a LCB/LB hybrid because it fits our current five at the back tactics.

From most of the names we’ve been linked with this guy is sure one of the most interesting ones, can provide us depth on multiple positions because he is versatile along with having plenty of room to still grow and improve, only downside is the same as with everyone this age, he will likely still be inconsistent, make some mistakes and we’ll need to be patient about it, but as i said he also has the quality to make an immediate positive impact here.
