Great news, another Dutch side will be so pleased with this.

 Old news. This story has been discussed here at least twice before, the first time in January I think.  It was being described as a done deal even then.

This signing is good news for those of us who actually support this club. It's very encouraging that we retain the ability to attract exciting prospects to our junior ranks despite all the negativity pumped out by those who think the world revolves around them and their keyboard. 

The young man is extremely talented. He isn't quite in the same class as the youngster Man City signed a couple of seasons ago (who is) but he has great promise. It would be nice if all of us could simply welcome Juan to the club and wish him well. Instead, we are likely to read the usual output from the keyboard warriors, spouting their ill-informed Tosh. Ho-hum.

Welcome to the club Juan. I wish you well.
