Scouting Report & Player Insights

A nimble, technical wide attacker who prefers operating on the flanks or in advanced midfield pockets. Relies on close control, quick changes of pace and intelligent movement to unsettle defenders and create chances. Noted more for creative impact and one-on-one ability than aerial or defensive dominance.

Eligible for Colombia through heritage but has featured in England youth setups, highlighting dual-nationality interest.

Came through multiple high-level academy environments, which shaped a versatile attacking skill set and comfort on either flank.
