Manchester City Fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays reports that the club have told Tosin Adarabioyo he could push for a first-team place next season, if he agrees to sign a new contract.
The Nigerian center back has returned to his parent club Manchester City following the end of his loan spell at EFL Championship club Blackburn Rovers which was originally due to run out at the end of last month.
The 22-year-old Anglo-Nigerian during his time at Blackburn Rovers made 35 appearances while scoring three goals and providing one assist.
According to 90mins, Manchester City impressed with Tosin’s performance while on loan, have told the Anglo-Nigerian defender that he could push for a first-team place next season if he agrees to sign a new contract.
The reports claims a host of Premier League sides are making inquiries to City about the availability of the 22-year-old.
His brilliant finish against Bristol City on matchday 38 was shortlisted for Blackburn Rovers Goal of the Season, an award eventually won by Adam Armstrong.
Adarabiyo has been on the books of Manchester City since the age of five and his contract there expires at the end of the 2020-2021 campaign.
In reaction to the report shared on Twitter by Man City Xtra and City chief, City fans have expressed their thoughts and opinions
Prefer him to Ake. Give the lad a chance— Mohamed Mussa- #ShukriAbdi (@drmymc) July 25, 2020
Would genuinely prefer this to Ake. Ake would be great but adding this height and this player from the man city academy ranks would be amazing— Martin Booyens (@Martin01815998) July 25, 2020
Should be true. With T. Adarabioyo🏴, E. García🇪🇸, Laporte🇫🇷 and Koulibaly🇸🇳…great defence. Let J. Braaf🇳🇱 demostrate who is him as well and then sign Ferrán Torres🇪🇸, D. Rosa🇧🇷 and may be one striker because G. Jesús🇧🇷 must play as LW and Sterling🏴 as RW. Great team then.— J@vi (@jdiazm11) July 25, 2020
Adarabioyo is a baller. When he played against Celtic in 16/17 he was good and showed what he can offer city— ashtunji (@FouldsAshley) July 25, 2020
Deserves a chance for me, had an excellent season for Blackburn & a decent loan at West brom before that. Send out Harwood Bellis on loan for experience & sell Otamendi & stones to make room. He’s a top defender in the making & a City boy.— Livingthedream (@Lemtini) July 25, 2020
Pleaseee get rid of stones and get this guy in 👏🏽— ♧ (@Mus7xb) July 25, 2020
“Probably but who knows? He is so much better than Stones and Otamendi”, claimed one fan.
while another asked, “Do you honestly think he has what it takes to play for us?”
while another tweeted, “Whenever I read these headlines I always think “could he?” “Be great to bring a kid through”….sadly I then watch it happen on the pitch and within 20mins think “he’s not good enough”
Another tweet said: “He truly deserves to be in this Pep Team. He’ll only improve and who knows maybe we won’t even require an extra CB. The guy is v passionate to represent our club.”
