    Cant say I know much about him apart from hes one of Citys youngesters and has played for various levels in Englands youngster set up. He wasnt a member of Englands successful under 20 squad in Korea this summer (think hes still eligable for that age group). Think hes a winger.

    The Manchester-born winger is well-regarded by youth academy coaches at the Etihad Stadium due to his pace and trickery and plays predominantly on the left-hand side.

    My Man City supporting mates down here say he is a tricky fast winger.

    He is 21 in October.

    Sounds like an OK move, especially with Boyle out. Lennon's made some cracking signings this window so here's hoping this turns out to be another one:

    If he comes, let's hope he gets more protection than Duncan Watmore did.

    I immediately thought of that

    Scottish refs rarely protect the young and skillful player

    Hibs are closing in on the loan signing of Manchester City’s highly-rated winger Brandon Barker. The 20-year-old is expected to join the Easter Road club on a season-long loan from the English Premier League outfit, with Barker due to arrive in the Capital within the next 24 hours for further talks and a medical. Barker has made one appearance for City in a 5-1 FA Cup defeat by Chelsea in 2016 and spent last season on loan at Dutch club NAC Breda, where he won promotion to the Eredivisie. Barker also had a loan spell at Rotherham in season 2015/16. The Manchester-born winger is well-regarded by youth academy coaches at the Etihad Stadium due to his pace and trickery and plays predominantly on the left-hand side.

    Just so long as he isn't another Billy big baws who rocks up to training in a Porche he's banned from driving, flashes his 20K a week contract in front of our senior players even though he hasn't made a dent in his clubs first team plans yet and then turns out to be so useless I would gladly drive him back to Manchester myself.

    The only club he's played anything like regularly for is NAC Breda on what appears to have been a season long loan .... but 22 appearances and 2 goals doesn't sound like he was a fixture in the team and 2 goals means he either doesn't score many in general or a lot of those 22 games were from off the bench.

    I'm not against him coming, a decent left winger would be just the job .... but since our dabbling with the wonder kid from Chelsea I wont get excited about loan players from blue chip clubs like Chelsea and Man City until they have shown on the pitch that they can actually play in the manner you would expect from a guy on the books of a mega rich club.

    Bah humbug !!!

    I hope Neil's vetted him properly. We need to be sure of his pedigree.

    People who make bad puns should be hounded off the forum IMO.



    (Except for me, of course. )


    Did I mention that getting players from teams like Juventus and Manchester City seems to me to be a very encouraging pointer to the future?

    I'll get ma coat.
