Mondo Primavera, the site that did the ratings went further to suggest that he has all of the characteristics to be a top player in the future based on his performance.
On loan from Serie B side Spezia, with Inter-Milan having the option of making the deal permanent in the summer, his fine start to life at the club will no doubt enhance his prospect of earning a permanent deal.
