Exclusive: A host of Serie A clubs are eager to sign a Manchester City prodigy on loan | OneFootball

One of the more exciting recent arrivals at Manchester City is young playmaker Claudio Echeverri. Echeverri arrived at the Etihad in January, and he is seen as an exciting addition to Pep Guardiola’s squad. He has yet to feature in the Manchester City matchday squad or make his debut for the club. Rob Dawson has previously reported for ESPN that City are yet to make a decision on whether or not Echeverri will go out on loan for next season. Esteemed Kompany sources have learned that three Serie A clubs have their eyes on sealing a loan deal for Echeverri this summer.

Esteemed Kompany sources have revealed that Como, Roma and Lazio all have an interest in signing Echeverri. Furthermore, it has also been revealed that Manchester City may be open to sending Echeverri out on loan next season. With his versatility to play on a wing or as a number 10, a loan move to Como, Lazio, or Roma could further Echeverri’s development. It is unclear at this stage if City sees him as a potential member of Pep Guardiola’s squad for next season.

The upcoming FIFA Club World Cup may decide what Manchester City do with Claudio Echeverri for next season.

Claudio Echeverri has been training with the Manchester City first team since he arrived at the club. He has also been pictured at the Etihad since he arrived at the club. Early indications are that he is a young prospect who needs time to adjust to life at the world champions. But the FIFA Club World Cup does loom large, and if Echeverri does impress there for Manchester City, he may play his way into Pep Guardiola’s squad for next season.

The FIFA Club World Cup does appear to be an opportunity for Pep Guardiola to give Manchester City’s youngsters a chance to impress. After such a long season for City’s senior players, they do need a break. It would appear to be a wise move for Guardiola to unleash a host of City’s youngsters at the tournament. That’s where players such as Claudio Echeverri and Divine Mukasa could be allowed to play. If they can impress, they could play their into City’s first-team squad for next season. Manchester City are entering a rebuild and their young players could form a key part of that. Claudio Echeverri is one player who could make an impression in the United States in June.

It’s not a surprise to see there are Serie A clubs eager to sign Claudio Echeverri. He will likely have more suitors in the summer when City’s plans for him become clear. He is one of the most exciting prospects to emerge for some time. But if he can impress at the Club World Cup he may remain at City for next season. But if he doesn’t a loan move to Lazio, Roma or Como may become a good move for his development.
