The reason he is doing so well on the wing atm is because he is still young. It's a lot harder to defend at a young age than it is to attack at will. That's why there aren't many top quality young defenders starting at this level. He still has to develop defensively. So I wouldn't rule hime out of becoming a top quality left back just yet. When he matures, he will be able to take on the responsibility of a defender, while also offering a major threat going forward.
He is not too disimilar to Ashley Cole. He just needs more experience so he can develop as an attacking fullback.
