Man City complete £8.2m transfer for Argentina midfielder Maximo Perrone

Manchester City have completed the signing of Argentina midfielder Maximo Perrone from Velez Sarsfeld.

City have paid around £8.2m to land the talented prospect, who only turned 20 in January. He will link up with the first team to train once he is finished at the Under-20 Championships with Argentina, where he is currently competing.

The player is seen as a potential option for the future, and a decision will be made at the end of the season after months of training with Pep Guardiola's squad whether to keep the player at the Etihad next season or to send him on loan.
