What's the point in Dusseldorf signing Bijev on loan and then not even including him in the first team squad, bizarre

Bizarre, very very bizarre!  Can someone put any light on the matter as why another team would loan a player and not put him in the first team?  And not send him back??

Beats me.

Villyan Bijev is only 18, and he is currently playing for Fortuna's 2nd team in the Regionalliga West, the equivalent of the English League One. He will very likely be transferred to their 1st team in the 2.Bundesliga (the equivalent of the English Championship), for the second half of the season. He's been sent on loan for a season, because his Bulgarian passport can't get him an automatic British work permit.

Cheers for that Mac red.  Beginning to make sense now then.

Dani has only made 8 sub appearances and 1 start in the League Cup for a fairly poor Rayo team this session.  Whilst I have not seen him play at all for Rayo, I cannot imagine that he has made much of an impact due to his lack of involvement.  Its a shame too, because he seemed to have such a bright future 2-3 seasons ago....
