-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outlook:
Plays in 2 and 3 positions, has a powerful 250 lbs body which enables him to be a force when he goes inside; needs to improve his technical skills, but he knows yet how to score and to pass; thanks to his athletic skills, he's yet a great defender, and has good team mentality
