Manchester City were successful in overcoming competition from other European clubs to sign Lorenzo González from Swiss side Servette in 2016.
The striker has represented the Premier League winners’ U18 and U23 side, but is yet to make an appearance for the first team.
It was reported on Wednesday by Canarias7 that UD Las Palmas wanted the Switzerland U19 international to bolster their frontline.
AS echo these claims, but add that Elche in La Liga2 are also interested, with the two sides fighting each other for his services.
After spending three years with the English club, the 19-year-old wants to leave City and find a new destination, especially since he has less than a year left on his contract at the Etihad.
However, both clubs have restrictions in signing the teenager. Elche cannot bring in a new player because they have already exhausted their salary limit.
Las Palmas, on the other hand, will have to allow one of their current players leave the club to loosen up their salary structure.
González’s father, who is of Andalusian origin, moved to Switzerland just months after the player was born.
AS claims the Hispanic-Swiss player’s U23 status could be the key in unlocking the operation for Elche and Las Palmas.
