Maximo Perrone completes permanent move to Como | OneFootball

Manchester City midfielder Maximo Perrone has sealed a permanent switch to Serie A side Como, in a deal that could rise to €15 million.

As part of the agreement, City have included a 30% sell-on clause and retain a buy-back option, keeping one eye on the Argentine’s future development.

Perrone joined the Premier League champions from Vélez Sarsfield back in 2023 for around £8 million, but found first-team chances limited - making just two senior appearances under Pep Guardiola during the Treble-winning 2022/23 campaign.

Since then, the 22-year-old has had loan spells at Las Palmas and Como, where he impressed enough to earn a permanent stay.

He’s now one of several young players joining the Italian side this summer, alongside Jesús Rodríguez from Real Betis, Nicholas Kühn from Celtic, Martin Baturina from Dinamo Zagreb, and Jayden Addai from AZ Alkmaar.

Como, who finished a respectable 10th in Serie A last season in their first top-flight campaign for over two decades, look keen to build on that momentum.
