It seems like it, his parent(s) probably come from either Uzbekistan or Kazakhstan purely going off his name.Wow, do we really have a Central Asian in the academy?
Can barely find any info on him, understandably.
Looks like we're getting our act together behind the scenes with these coaching appointmentsTweet

It looks like he’s from Dagestan. Just had a quick look and his brothers a highly rated MMA fighter. Found a video that says he’s ‘Dagestan's next star’ or something along those lines.It seems like it, his parent(s) probably come from either Uzbekistan or Kazakhstan purely going off his name.

Not claiming to be a geography expert but always thought I had good knowledge on the subject... Except I didn't even know that there was a country by that name!It looks like he’s from Dagestan.

Was he loaned or sold?Devine had a superb debut for St.Johnstone according to his own manager. He even won a penalty - which they missed. Match ended 0-0
LoanWas he loaned or sold?
The U/23's usually play on a Monday or a Friday.Does anyone know if there is a team who plays during the week a match?
Nice game to ease him in, he'll be up against Falcao on Thursday in the Europa.Devine had a superb debut for St.Johnstone according to his own manager. He even won a penalty - which they missed. Match ended 0-0
It runs in my mind that we released him this summer, though I cannot find a source stating as such.Did Aliou Traore come back to us after his loan? I've not seen much said about him
it is true. We released him this summer. He is currently without a clubIt runs in my mind that we released him this summer, though I cannot find a source stating as such.

Thanks guys, was wondering why it went quiet on him.it is true. We released him this summer. He is currently without a club
It all depends on who is going out on loan and who's not. I imagine the U23 will be midtable and U18 in the top, a bit like last season.Out of interest, what are everyone’s thoughts about the coming season for the academy (18s and 23s). How well do you think we’ll do in the league? How far can you see us going in the cups?

Yeah, I think the U18's will be competing at the top again. I'm a little less confident about a potential Youth Cup win than I was last season - yet we should get further than last year if we can avoid the likes of Liverpool early on this time.It all depends on who is going out on loan and who's not.

I agree with that, although I think we missed a decent striker in the U23 last season. But in that department, we will be stronger now with McNeill and Hugill both a year older. I also think that Shoretire and Hannibal will play a few games, especially Shoretire. We will miss the creativity and pace of Elanga though I will imagine. U18 is hard to judge, it all depends on who plays. We can get a pretty strong FAYC team with Hugill, McNeill, Hansen, Forson, Kambwala, Jurado, Garnacho. But maybe not as strong as last season. I imagine that we will be top 3 in the league though.Yeah, I think the U18's will be competing at the top again.

I think the U23's will struggle more than last season - unless the likes of Hannibal, Shoretire and Elanga are made available for decent lengths. The CM looks OK, but the defence looks light again and, although Hugill and / or McNeill should provide a good spearhead, I can't see our attack being as strong as it was last season when we featured combinations including Amad, Pellistri, Elanga, Hannibal and Shoretire in our most impressive displays.
Agree. Impossible to say - it all depends on who gets loaned out. Our eligible U-18 players surely must be right up there, but it's safe to assume that the majority of them will play for the U23sIt all depends on who is going out on loan and who's not.

Agreed, but just don't want them to get knocked down to a lower group. Its much more enjoyable for them to play Pool and City.Agree. Impossible to say - it all depends on who gets loaned out.

With Laird, Mengi, Fish, Bernard and Devine all loaned out - we don't really have any experienced defenders apart from McShane unless we start using Williams etc (which I hope not).
I generally think our players are too young to do really well both at U18 and U23 - but that is not that important at this level
