From the highlights seems slowish and not a sideline hugger type either.

Lets see.
I would wager he gets games as on the left forward position if he signs this summer.
From his clips does plenty work outside the box and picks up ball far from box.
Doesnt look an out and out CF on those.
Things are happening?.
I said it in 1st page, he reminds me of last few generations of Argentinian strikers for example.
Tevez, Alvarez, Lautaro, Aguero, Lavezzi etc.
Short but fairly athletic number 9, not athletic enough to be wingers though.
Not a 9 that stays in penalty area, but would still bang many goals.
Don't think he is a high ceiling signing, like a potential balon d'o player, but I think there is a good chance he might end up a good starting CF.
Quick YouTube clips views, tells me he can't play on the wings.
Also agree with Khaled, doesn't seem a generational talent, but seems strong, low center it gravity, stocky.
Romario type of player, forgive the outrageous comparison.
No one is claiming he will play on the 'wings' as far as can see.
I bet if he arrives in summer he will get time as forward from left at times.
Lets see.
Looks like he has a lot more to his game than likes of Barbera of whom there has been comparisons.

What's up with all these left-footed talents anyway? We need a good right-footed one.
And not gonna lie I am pretty hyped for Yamal.
I stand corrected, still really hard to spot from youtube which foot he prefers. Looks like he's carrying the ball towards his left when running with it.
Not the guy you want to carry the ball though.
