Genuinely didn’t see this coming. Not sure what to say on this one

Yes - he came through the Academy

Not sure if he will count as HG - Club trained (I think he will, but that really only matters in Europe...)
Even with all his loan spells he must surely have completed three years at the club between age 15 and 21.

Edit: his first loan was in 2017 aged 19 so yes, definitely club trained.

Haven’t watched him in Scotland so no idea if he’s improved enough to bring him back. This feels like a lazy press link tbh.

Would he count as home grown?

Yep and club trained. Can’t see it though, we spent so long trying to get him out of the club, I can’t believe he would want to come back. If Tanganga went to Celtic, he’d be in the same position as him and we wouldn’t want him back. Although when he was in the under 18s he was higher rated than tanganga and never really got his chance here.

Some players find their feet later on don’t they so maybe he’s suddenly improved dramatically, I guess Ange would know, but as I said this still feels like lazy press links.

Yeah the only game I remember of him is the Wycombe game in 2017 where Bayo Akinfenwa and Paul Hayes ran rings around him. Not only were they stronger but even those big brutes were faster than him that day. Not a ringing endorsement.

Of course he was 19 and six years is a long time but I have little hope he's become a top quality PL defender.

He was in the Team of the Year in Scotland for what it's worth. Does not really answer your question, and I don't really know if he is better than Tanganga.

But, if we can sell Tanganga for more than it costs to bring in CCV, maybe there is value there. I am not confident that we would get more for Tanganga than we pay for CCV though.

Or that ccv would want to come back to us to not play, while playing in a team competing for league titles and cups.

Maybe a chance at bigger wages, and coming home is attractive. I don't know. Maybe he likes it at Celtic, and there are no real links. 🤷‍♂️
