Lommel midfielder Diego Rosa joins Man City for preseason training | OneFootball

Diego Rosa has joined Manchester City preseason today.

The Manchester Evening News reports Rosa has arrived in Manchester to begin pre-season training at City, with captain Fernandinho showing his compatriot around the city before he joins the rest of the squad.

Rosa, 18, signed from Gremio earlier this year before heading out to City Football Group club Lommel for the second half of last season.

City made the decision to recall their recent signing for pre-season, given the fact that the squad is thin on numbers until more senior internationals report back.

Earlier this month, Lommel manager Liam Manning said: “This is a great experience for Diego.

"Manchester City are currently missing so many players because of the European Championships and the Copa America in South America that they have invited Diego. This is a fantastic opportunity for him to use Manchester City's training facilities."
