São Paulo reportedly continue to advance for the signing of Manchester City duo Nahuel Ferraresi and Nahuel Bustos.
Stories from the Brazilian media claim that the Tricolor are now close to landing both the defender and the centre-forward on separate loan deals.
On Monday, it was journalist Cesar Luis Merlo who claimed Bustos already had an agreement to join São Paulo, and would travel this week for his medical with the club.
Now Goal Brasil writes that the Tricolor also ‘advanced’ in the talks for Ferraresi, and the centre-back should be loaned to the club until June 2023.
The report points out that there’s been a very good relationship between São Paulo and Manchester City since officials from the Brazilian club travelled to England for talks.
It’s said the Premier League side would rather let Ferraresi go on a permanent move, but since the Tricolor have no conditions for such deal, the loan was the only solution.
São Paulo are set to pay the defender’s entire wages, and hope to get a clause for a buying option in the agreement.
