In the last few days, the Italian press has had conflicting views about Lazio’s potential move for Manchester City’s Claudio Echeverri.
Corriere dello Sport had outright denied any links but La Gazzetta dello Sport believed the Roman club’s approach for the Argentine could be part of the Citizens’ move for Mario Gila.
Calciomercato’s Daniele Longo has provided some insight into Echeverri’s Manchester City future.
The English champions have informed the teenager’s entourage about their desire to loan him out for a season.
This has given hope to potential suitors. Lazio are trying to sign him and in recent days, contact was made between the player’s agents and the Italian side.
Even if the Biancocelesti moved in advance for the youngster, a deal remains quite complicated. In fact, it might even be possible.
The journalist feels quite confident that Manchester City will end up loaning Echeverri to their partner club Girona.
Unless there is a dramatic turn of events, it does seem as if the 19-year-old will not join Lazio and that his future lies in Spain.
