Manchester City yesterday received a 30 million euro offer for Claudio Echeverri that has been promptly rejected, as manager Pep Guardiola sees the Argentinian youth prospect as an important member of his squad for the upcoming season. The 19-year-old played his first game in the Premier League last season, having arrived from Argentine club River Plate.
It is understood that Echeverri wants to move to Roma and that the club's manager Gian Piero Gasperini has been in contact with the versatile forward to persuade him to move to Italy. With Paulo Dybala and Matias Soule leading the line, Echeverri would be a welcome addition to the club's forward line.
Roma are less interested in a loan move for Echeverri, as they see him as a player that they wish to build the club's future around, but a loan offer could also be an option, as long as the Serie A giants are able to include a clause that would bring Echeverri to Italy on a permanent basis.
It is not yet known how much Man City would accept to be persuaded to sell Echeverri.
