Football League World's Bristol City fan pundit Colin Sutton has given his thoughts on Han-Noah Massengo's future Premier League prospects, with the 18-year-old midfield linchpin having left a lasting impression on many of the Ashton Gate faithful this term. 

Massengo only joined the club in the summer of this year, however the youngster has already established himself as a firm fans favourite since arriving from French giants AS Monaco.

Given the amount of talent that he possesses at such a young age, surely it'll only be a matter of time before his performances begin to attract Premier League and European interest in acquiring his services, with Sutton talking up the youngster's qualities to a great degree:

"Massengo has certainly made a huge impact on and off the pitch since his arrival from Monaco in August for a fee of £2.7m, not the reported £8m.

"Having just turned 18 in July this year, his desire to want the ball as much as possible, enthusiasm, energy and youthful exuberance really does impress.

"As a footballer Massengo is a bit of everything, he is very technical, which is something many could learn from in the English game.

"He also possesses outstanding passing, with 81% passing success for the whole season to date, he has a terrific engine on him, and is a real box-to-box midfielder and has the ability to press high, which fits our style of play."

Sutton was then asked if he thought Premier League sides would show interest in Massengo, to which he responded:

"It has to be a possibility that a Premier League side will come in for him at the end of the season if his performances and improvement continue. 

"If this were to happen, I think he would be loaned back out to a Championship side immediately to gain more experience and toughen up."

And lastly, our fan pundit gave his thoughts on how much he would value Massengo in today's market, he said:

"If he does continue to impress and improve, I would value him at a minimum of £15 million, which is based on City’s transfer fees of £13 million for Kelly and £22 million for Webster this summer."

One thing's for sure, if Massengo continues on his current trajectory, we could soon see the young Frenchman plying his trade at a higher level before too long.
