Newcastle United's right back Kieran Trippier is a huge admirer of midfielder Joelinton.
The Brazilian signed for Newcastle several years ago as a striker.
While he failed in that position, he was converted into a midfielder and has never looked back.
In a recent interview, Trippier told Vibe with Five: "The one player is Joelinton. I've played with a lot of South Americans over the years, and he's proper 100% in training every day.
He's an unbelievable player, an absolute machine.
"The turnaround in his career from what I've heard before the takeover until now is remarkable.
What a player he is, he's got an unbelievable future ahead of him."
