Manchester City have beaten their Premier League rivals for highly-rated Colombian winger John Edwin Montano.
According to TBR, Manchester City had to beat some of their Premier League rivals to get their hands on teenage sensation John Edwin Montana. The Colombian winger has been on the radars of Chelsea and Aston Villa, but the City Football Group were adamant about getting a deal in place with his club, Medellin.
A few days ago, Fabrizio Romano reported on Manchester City’s agreement for Colombian teenage winger John Edwin Montana. The 18-year-old prodigy has been likened to some of the game’s most formidable attackers.
Manchester City have agreed a deal to bring him for a fee close to £2.3 million. Once he arrives in January, the 18-year-old prodigy will be loaned out to Belgian side FC Lommel. The idea is designed to help the teenager gain a foothold in European football and regular minutes before Man City decides how they want to use him going forward.
He’s still too young for a team like Man City, as there are chances that they will develop his talents in the same way they did with Savinho. The Brazilian spent time with the City Football Group’s sister clubs, like Troyes and Girona, before making the switch to the big one under Pep Guardiola.
Montana might see a similar path ahead of his arrival in Europe. Manchester City have been looking at some young attacker profiles, as they are one of the clubs keen on Portuguese teenage winger Goeany Quenda, which shows they are eager to bring the best young profiles around and nurture them into future stars.
