Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola will finally welcome Claudio Echeverri to his club.
The Citizens will welcome the young Argentine genius in January, when his contract with River Plate comes to an end. The midfielder was recruited last January, but was kept at River for a further year to continue his development.
Another outstanding talent at Man City
Former City defender Martin Demichelis was River Plate’s manager until July 2024, meaning he knows the player well. He said, according to The Mirror: “Claudio is truly one of the great emerging talents in River football. We have a large squad that always produces technically gifted players. However, the daily whirlwind in River requires not only winning, but also being a protagonist in a very special way, trying to play well. »
“I believe that when you leave River well trained, you are ready for anything. Claudio is still evolving. It has made a very, very significant jump in recent months. Technically, it’s a marvel. We enjoy watching him play, even though he is very young. It caught everyone’s attention. We’re going to enjoy it a little longer, then we’ll leave it to you.” added Demichelis.
