I'd be amazed if we limit this kids talent playing him at DM.
That's not how football works. Your deepest midfielder is often the most vital in building through teams. There's a reason Rodri is widely seen as the best midfielder in Europe.

I think Sarr is likely to be trained as well once he reaches the relevant age 👍
If my understanding is correct
Sarr can be Home Grown in Premier but can’t be Club trained in Europe because season 21/22 we send him loan back.

Premier accepted that case but base on Eufa Rules that can’t count.

There are 2 parts to the PL rules also - homegrown means time in England before turning 21, and club-trained means time at the club before turning 21. For example Skipp would be homegrown and club-trained, with Johnson just being homegrown.

I believe Sarr and Bergvall will both count as homegrown and club-trained.

Kulu could hopefully be influential here. They have gone through the youth ranks in the same club back in Sweden. He knows what it is like to move to a new country and culture when you are very young and he knows what it is like to join one of the biggest clubs in the world and that the fun stops when you sit on the bench for too long.

From a website;
Lucas Bergvall: Youth career: IF Brommapojkarna
- You’ve probably never heard of IF Brommapojkarna
- BP had over 4,000 young players on their books playing across hundreds of teams
- They count Spurs attacker Dejan Kulusevski and Sporting striker Viktor Gyökeres among their academy alumni,

Bergvall will be homegrown for Europe, Sarr won't.

UEFA counts from the day the season starts (that is, the first match played). Sarr joined after the start of the season - so he'll be a foreign player for us in Europe. UEFA has the same/stricter rules than the PL in each case, so theirs are the important ones for squad building.

Yeah always baffles me with Uefa Dier wasn't homegrown was an England International at the time but considered not by UEFA

I thought club trained only matters for Europe. HomeGrown in premier league is just association trained whereas europe requires 8 association trained, 4 of which should be club trained (if you want a full squad)
