Manchester City are in the news again for their transfer activities, with reports indicating that they have successfully secured a deal to sign Girona’s star player Savio on a permanent basis for this summer.

The January transfer window was largely uneventful for City, with no new signings except for the acquisition of Argentine youngster Claudio Echeverri, who will remain at River Plate for the time being.

One player that has caught their attention is Troyes’ young talent Savio, who has made a significant impact in La Liga while on loan at Girona this season. The Brazilian has scored seven goals and provided seven assists, attracting interest from several clubs.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, City have reached an agreement to sign Savio in the summer, despite competition from German and English clubs. This follows Romano’s previous report that City were expecting to sign the talented youngster.

Given that Girona is owned by the City Football Group, it was widely anticipated that this would give City an edge in courting Savio. This development is indeed exciting, especially considering Savio’s spectacular performances this season, which hint at a promising future.

It is particularly noteworthy that City were able to fend off interest from notable clubs like Real Madrid, underlining Savio’s potential as a top talent. It is expected that the necessary documents will be finalized in the coming days, marking a significant development in City’s transfer plans.

Given the level of excitement surrounding this potential signing, it remains to be seen how the situation will unfold, and fans will be eagerly awaiting more updates on Savio’s official move to City this summer.
