A week or so ago, we relayed a story from RMC Sport regarding Manchester City’s interest in Paris Saint-Germain’s young midfielder Claudio Gomes.
Having failed in their attempts to sign Dan-Axel Zagadou, now at Borussia Dortmund, Pep Guardiola’s side were said to be trying their hardest to tie up a deal for the 17-year-old, and they’ve now managed it.
According to the same media outlet, Gomes will leave Paris Saint-Germain in the summer to sign for Manchester City, having already let the Ligue 1 leaders know of his decision.
Yet to make a professional appearance under Unai Emery, Gomes had, however, been moved up to train with the first-team recently, as well as travelling with them on a publicity event.
For Paris Saint-Germain, this is yet another talented youngster slipping through their fingers, adding to an increasing long list of what could have beens, like Kingsley Coman.
