Did Fabbian's mother show up in Udine to demand a higher commission or was that his aunt?
It worked for Dimarco... it's up to the player - if he blows up, they'll play him. We just overhype our primavera products out of proportion. The jump from playing with kids to playing against professionals is quite high, most just don't make it or make it to Serie B / mid-table level at best. Half of Serie A is littered with our former Primavera players.I m against the loaning to mid table teams. thst never really turned out well.
better throw them in vs small teams and give them minutes
Well but beside the Serie A and Premier League most top leagues give the youngsters chances.It worked for Dimarco... it's up to the player - if he blows up, they'll play him.

Those guys are kids, still. Some of them go abroad, like Scamacca did by going to the Eredivisie, but most of them don't want to move to a different country that young. We can't just force them to go to the Netherlands or Belgium for playing time, at least that's the reason I imagine we don't go this route more often.Well but beside the Serie A and Premier League most top leagues give the youngsters chances.
beside that i d prefer loan deals to smaller leagues as there are younger players, less competition..
This is a joke right?If he goes to Bologna, I'm always going to have the suspicion they blew up the Samardzic deal on purpose so they can pay the first half of Arnautovic's fee with Fabbian.
He needs to play to aid his development. Makes zero sense to keep him and not play him.Should just keep him as a bench option at the moment.
True, even tho i m not sure of it as i think being abroad alone is a cool experience for many. smaller leagues would be more helpful for them to develop than the tactical serie a.Those guys are kids, still.

I don't understand why he shouldn't just go to Udinese regardless.
Why lose a top prospect for 4m if you can loan them to
Develop?
IIRC the deal included an option to buy him back for 12 million in 2 years, which is a good deal if he turns out good. If he's just mediocre, we'd have at least made a couple million, which is more than we'll make by endlessly loaning him out for the rest of his career.
