Manchester City has officially welcomed Claudio Echeverri, the talented Argentina Under-17 midfielder, to their team. The young player joins from River Plate, marking an exciting addition to the squad.

Manchester City has successfully secured the services of Claudio Echeverri for a fee of around £12.5 million. 

The 18-year-old midfielder, who captained Argentina at the U17 World Cup, has inked a four-and-a-half-year contract that extends until 2028.

Despite joining Manchester City, Echeverri will continue playing for River Plate throughout 2024 as part of the agreement between the two clubs. This move follows a similar deal City made with River for Julian Alvarez in January 2022.

Echeverri's noteworthy achievements include scoring a memorable hat-trick against Brazil in the U17 World Cup quarter-finals. 

He led Argentina to a commendable fourth-place finish in the tournament, contributing a total of five goals. His promising skills and achievements make him an exciting addition to Manchester City's roster.
