"To decide, it is through the analysis of how we are expecting to be until January. We are going to play eight matches. Cisse is not in because he is injured. Madjo is still injured for the next two weeks minimum.

"Taylor arrived as the last one (signing), and we can get the balance with Lamare Bogarde, and we can even play [Boubacar] Kamara. We tried to analyse it deeply.

"Taylor will be here for a long time, and hopefully, we will have the opportunity to play in Europe with us, in January maybe, and the next few years.

"Madjo is 17 years old and is so, so young. He will have, for sure, more opportunities to play with us this year and the next years in Europe."

Are they ready to make the step up? I’m not sure about that. We will see how that goes. Some of them might be pushed in."

On 18-year-old forward Braiden Graham: "I don’t think he’s a striker, first of all. He’s probably someone who would play off the sides for us.

"I like Braiden, he’s trained with us quite a lot and he was in pre-season with us.

"He’s certainly moving in the right direction. It would be a difficult ask for any young player to come in and be a source for goals."

"I can't say anything because I didn't decide anything. The message from Richarlison from the beginning of the season was clear and I accepted that.
