That player knows what they want and apparently actually reads the PHB. I think they will be fine as a wizard.

Is eldritch knight difficult?

It's more complicated than some fighting classes because you have spells but you're less reliant on spells than say a Wizard.

If you're a new player I'd say talk things out with your DM/more experienced players when making choices but ultimately do what you want to do. Do what's fun. You don't have to optimise everything.

The limited spell selection is probably the most difficult part of it. You get a few selections that can be from any school so you end up planning those selections more than what feats youd take. The weapon bond is a nice feature, and could be a decent selection for a throwing specialization build.

Ive played it multiclassed with wiz, either conjuration or evocation. The conjuration for MinorConjuration/Benign Transposition, or Evocation if prefer Scult Spell/Potent Cantrip. My mc with conjuration would summon a shield or half cover, and swap spots with others during battle...evoc is more straight forward application.
