Molson Canadian Posted 5 June 2023 Share Posted 5 June 2023 Wolves and Leicester are competing for the signature of midfielder Arjan Raikhy, according to the Daily Mail. Raikhy was part of the Aston Villa side that won the FA Youth Cup in 2021, before going on to help both Grimsby and Stockport get promoted to the Football League during two separate loan spells the following season. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arjan_Raikhy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 6 June 2023 Share Posted 6 June 2023 This is just going to be a generic development signing for the u23s, we do a few of these every year. It's a non story, not really worth any panic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understanding needing to fill the team with bodies since we seem to be using the u21s to focus on only a couple of players with the rest being supporting characters. (Seems like we could be doing more for the rest who increasingly have more and more potiential compared with years past but that's another debate) So we've had four and possibly soon five from villa? What's the advantage of going to villa? Is someone just lazy or are we or someone benefiting from it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it is a shame we didn't try sending Johansson out on loan at all and seemingly create a development plan of some kind for him Had 2 seasons in our under 21s then left on a free I think it might be Petty that has a link with Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure they then signed permanently. Petty has links to Villa, we got him from there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does sound like a bit of "Why bother looking at all the possible youth players when I can just look a Villa's lot?" And that sounds like these lot are fillers. Which doesn't give a great impression to the players honestly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have disillusioned players running around going nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
