Based on all the speculation it appears this will be permanent based on our league position and not Hall’s game time.
We’ve then decided/planned not to use him much this season so that we can claim he’s a youth player signing and we don’t take the hit on FFP. This was raised in a recent interview with Howe and he batted the question away without denying it.
Hopefully we’ll see him feature more next season, but I’m still unsure what his best position is.
