With Chambers who is still young and Bielik with U21, I don’t understand why we’re following Holding. We don’t need a young CB for the future, we need a player ready to compete with the first team to build a long time partnership with Lolo.
For pure depth, it’s great to add another promising player in this position. Not that I know a great deal about him of course. However, the Mert/Kos fulcrum is an ageing one and I don’t see them pairing for 38+ games ever again, so it’s sensible to add young legs here.
