"Who do you have in mind?"
I had already done the research. I had spent the previous evening on my laptop, scrolling through scouting reports, watching footage, and looking at contract situations. Three names kept coming back to me, and I laid them out for Freedman one by one.
"Grimaldo first," I said. "Álex Grimaldo at Benfica. Twenty-one years old, technically unbelievable, probably the best young left back in Europe right now. He's got a release clause and he's available. On pure ability, he might be the best option on the list."
Freedman nodded slowly. "He's exceptional," he said.
