Asking for a language tutor

Cause
The language barrier is wearing on him.; He still does not speak the local language.
Stayed on the bench while Jacopo Murano took the slot

Outlook
Repeated incidents may damage dressing-room status.
Settling well into the dressing room
Minor

A strong training-ground partnership is behind this. The bond between them was already strong, so the morale hit should be limited.

Settling-in period is still under way.
Wants to head back home
Serious
Cause
After a long, difficult settling period he is openly hoping for a move home or to a familiar club. (The move took him to a different continent.; He still does not speak the local language.)
Outlook
Contract request risk increased.
Still struggling to settle into the squad
Moderate
Cause
He has not yet made the connections that come naturally to most signings.
