“When we first met her about six months ago, we immediately recognized her potential and thought, ‘she has what it takes at a high level,’” he stated. “To excel at an elite level, you need quick thinking and rapid movement, and she possesses both. She was poised and ready, marking her entry into senior football.”
“Just observe how she navigates space. Take a look at her goal—she anticipates, times her run perfectly, and then makes her move. It’s impressive. I was genuinely surprised by the quality of her finish; it was instinctive and executed on the first touch.”
“She embodies a fearless attitude. When you give Layla a chance, you hope for a goal, but she is more concerned with playing her game. She mentioned, ‘if I had gotten on against Arsenal, I would have taken them on,’ just like kids do. That kind of mindset is essential at times, as it prevents overthinking.”
“I’m really impressed with her, and I believe she’s a player we need to keep close, as she has the potential to influence games.”
