Manchester City has grown into one of the biggest clubs in England over the last couple of years. Man City is currently the most successful club this past decade as they just won their fourth Premier League title in a row, something not achieved by any club in the history of the league. The club has bought some amazing talents from Europe, but now they are open to signing young talent from South America. The relationship between Manchester City and River Plate has grown since the signing of Julian Alvarez in 2022. The Argentine striker has caused a lot of interest in South America after his impressive performances with River Plate. Man City signed him on January 31st, 2022, for more than $22 million but was loaned out to River Plate for six months. A similar situation is happening with Claudio Echeverri, who signed for Man City in January of this year but is loaned out to River Plate for a year. Pep Guardiola will count on him during the second part of the season next season.
Sergio Aguero, a Manchester City legend, has praised the 18-year-old attacking midfielder. Echeverri continues to shine for River Plate but will make his Premier League debut with Man City next season. The Argentine wonder kid will hope to get involved with the team, as he now has Julian Alvarez to help him out with the transition from Argentine football to the Premier League. Pep Guardiola approved the signing of Julian Alvarez, so Echeverri is expected to get minutes when he arrives early next year.
Echeverri played in the last five matches for River Plate in the Liga Professional in Argentina this year. He stated that in all five matches, he scored one goal. After five games played in the league, River Plate is 7th in the table with nine points, with three wins and two losses.
Although Echeverri and Alvarez will play together at Manchester City next year, the two young Argentine players will play together this summer at the Summer Olympics in Paris. The U23 Argentina squad for the Olympic Games has been announced, and both players are on the list.
