I think I said “wunderkind”.

Any profile on this lad?

I'm at work - does anyone have the cliffnotes on this guy? Position/role?

Bitello's greatest strength is his versatility. Typically, he operates as an all-action number eight in a midfield pivot or as a number 10. But last season, he was also utilised as a false nine or right-wing on occasion. His ball-carrying is one of his greatest assets, frequently dribbling the ball up the pitch as a means of progression - making him extremely press resistant.

ESR and Fabio better watch out.

Thank you my friend. We love a good versatile attacker. Or a good versalite defender. Next we will be deploying Hein and Runarsson on the wings.

I know this is a joke, but with how much our women's team suffered from injuries and how Zinsberger started as an outfielder iirc, I actually was expecting her to play outfield at some point this season. Luckily it never came to it lol.
