“I believe he should go to the Premier League, but you know he’s young. He has his agent, he has his advisor, and I believe they can advise him on what to do. If I were to advise him, I’d say the Premier League, because that is the big stage, the biggest league in the world.
"That’s where I believe he’s going to make an even bigger name for himself that he can carry throughout his career, even after football,” he said.
