Newcastle United boss Steve Bruce is convinced by the quality of winger Allan Saint-Maximin.

The 22-year-old French winger was a 16million summer signing from Nice.

Bruce said: "He's only 22 and he's got more outfits than I've seen. He's different and I'm sure at times he's going to cause me a few problems. But in all of that, deep down, he's a decent kid.

"He's okay, a bit different, but we all have to manage these different individuals, and he's certainly one.

"He likes an ear-ring. He gives me 100 every other day when he forgets to take it out! In that respect, I've got a few quid off him already.

"But he's a good kid, he's all right. The players like him. He's daft, he's off the wall and he's likeable."
