City wants to loan Echeverri and Benfica is an option

Manchester City intends to loan Claudio Echeverri, a young Argentine player, during the next season. The English club is looking to find a destination that allows the player to have regular playing time.

Benfica appears as one of three possible options to receive Echeverri on loan. The red and whites compete with two other clubs not yet identified in the race for the young Argentine.

Echeverri, who transferred to Manchester City in January, has not yet managed to establish himself at Pep Guardiola's club. The loan move is seen as the best solution for his development.

The 18-year-old forward is considered one of the great prospects of Argentine football, having attracted the interest of several European clubs before his transfer to the Citizens.
