However, he will Lee Carsley's squad at Mottram Hall ahead of their European Championship qualifier against Albania this week.

"We really rate him highly," Carsley said, per Daily Mail.

"He's going to struggle to get a lot of game-time at City. But we can potentially give him some minutes.

"He can play anywhere: seven, 11, 10, nine, eight. He's a good footballer. I was lucky to see him at City when I was there with the younger age groups. He's one we've kept an eye constantly."
