Longo: Echeviri doesn t want to be loaned to Girona by Manchester City, he wants to participate in the Champions League or UEFA Cup

August 2, football reporter Daniel Longo said that Echeviri would not be loaned to Girona because he wanted to participate in the Champions League or the Europa League.

19-year-old Echeviri is an Argentine midfielder. He came to Manchester City at the end of last year and made only one appearance in the Premier League, but Echeviri scored a wonderful free kick in this summer's Club World Cup. Manchester City hopes to rent Echeviri out for other teams in the new season and consider letting him loan him to Manchester City's affiliated club Girona.

However, Daniel Longo said: "Echeviri and his entourage have not changed their minds: they hope to compete in the Champions League or the UEFA Cup next season. Although Girona is Manchester City's most optimistic destination, this has not satisfied the players." Girona ranked 16th in La Liga last season, but barely relegated.

Serie A powerhouse Roma is also interested in Echeviri and hopes to rent first and then buy players. Roma can participate in the UEFA Cup in the new season. However, Manchester City is reluctant to join the buyout clause, so negotiations have become difficult. Previously, "Roman Sports" revealed that Roma is willing to let Manchester City retain Echeviri's future buyback rights, which may drive the transaction.
