Have we signed him to fight for a spot in the first team? Or is he set for a bit of an EDS/Loan period of development?

How does it work in terms of the homegrown quota and squad numbers.....is he another like Balotelli (ie under 21 and developed by a European club?) or was he not at Barcelona for long enough when young enough? I know he was originally at a couple of Israeli clubs....on the basis that Israeli clubs sit within UEFA does that mean that he qualifies anyway???

He looks promising doesn't he, nice turn of pace and doesn't look afraid to take a man on.

Sounds like he's earning the family name. I like that attitude. Nothing for free.

Longest trial in football history. Still, good to see he does exist.

After a long injury he fought his way back but was unable to then break into the first team squad (understandably), at which point he got a bit frustrated and negotiated his release. City wanted to make sure both about his injury and him not getting 'frustrated' too much here I guess!

In theory, as he signed on a free and is under 21, he can play immediately
