What the Preston North End coach said about Felipinho

“He’s a good player, right? He has good attributes, but he is 17 years old and you have to be careful. It is likely that people want us to add him to the squad; Very soon he will come to train with us, when he leaves school! He’s crazy, right? ”said manager Ryan Lowe in an interview with Lancs Live.

“He is a fantastic talent and we have to follow him closely, and we are doing that, of course. We get reports from all the kids when they play. Again, we can’t get too carried away with it and we have to downplay it a little bit, but it seems like an interesting prospect for us,” he added.
