He was tipped for a big future and if he comes anywhere near around what his best was... he's an absolute bargain. If he ends up being a sicknote or a flop... he barely cost anything in the 2024 market - so it's not a massive loss to us. He's on the same wages he was on at Juve, so not low wages... but also he's not on super massive wages. According to a lot of Juve fans, he's still good - he just doesn't have the same explosive pace he had before the ACL injury & the new manager wants something else from his wingers. I think as a backup winger, which is most likely what he'll be this season, having someone two footed and a confident dribbler even if he's not the fastest gives us an option off the bench that we've not really had since Shaqiri (not including the threat Shaqiri gave us from set pieces because he's a bit of a set piece specialist)... even if he's not quite as good as he was before the ACL.
