Manchester City are reportedly keen on signing the Spanish midfielder Gabriel Veiga.
The 21-year-old midfielder moved to Saudi Arabia at the start of the season and Manchester City could offer him way back to Europe. A report from Fichajes claims that Manchester City would be willing to submit a lucrative proposal to sign the player and he might consider a move back to Europe considering he is not entirely happy in Saudi Arabia.
Veiga was regarded as one of the most promising young talents in Spanish football during his time at Celta Vigo, and he was expected to join a top European club. He ended up moving to Saudi Arabia and it remains to be seen whether Manchester City can bring him back to Europe.
The opportunity to join the Premier League club will be an attractive proposition for most players, and the 21-year-old will certainly be attracted to the idea of playing for them.
Guardiola has put together a formidable squad at Manchester City and Veiga would be a solid, long-term acquisition. He will add technical liability and creativity to the Manchester City midfield and he has the quality to succeed in English football.
Manchester City will be hoping to compete at the highest level consistently and they need to keep upgrading their squad every season. Veiga would be a long-term prospect for them and he will add technical ability and craft to their midfield. The 21-year-old can operate as the number ten as well as a creative central midfielder. Given their style of play, the midfielder should prove to be a quality fit for the Manchester City midfield.
It will be interesting to see if the Saudi Arabian club is prepared to let go of him in the coming months. The midfielder has a long-term contract with them and they are under no pressure to cash in on him just yet.
However, Veiga is reportedly unhappy in Saudi Arabia and it remains to be seen whether he can convince his club to sanction his departure in the coming months.
