Young Man City Phenom Could Be On The Move | OneFootball

Borges Could Leave Manchester City – Buyback Clause Expected

One of the latest buzzes around the football landscape is that Manchester City may part ways with their young winger, Carlos Borges. The club has displayed openness to entertaining both loan proposals and outright sale this summer. While a potential buy-back clause would possibly accompany a sale, the permanence of such a deal still generates substantial intrigue around the teenager’s future.

At just 19, Borges has earned recognition as a high-quality asset within the Etihad’s development squad. Despite this, breaking into Guardiola’s first team seems a distant prospect, primarily due to the existing talent-laden side. Even Borges acknowledges the daunting task of securing a consistent spot on the roster. As such, he might find the allure of a club offering more regular game time hard to resist.

Premier League and Championship Interest Peaks for Borges

Borges’ impressive performances with City’s Elite Development Squad have caught the attention of a number of clubs in the Premier League and the Championship. Bournemouth, for instance, is now considering joining the race for the young talent. After their scouts got a glimpse of the Portuguese Under-19 International in action at the Euros, the club is keen to bolster their attacking arsenal with Borges’ promising skills.

Apart from Bournemouth, other teams are hot on Borges’ trail. Newly relegated Southampton is amongst those interested in signing the teenager this summer. Having started in all three of Portugal’s Group A games at the Euros, Borges has left an indelible mark that continues to attract an expanding array of potential suitors.

Borges’ Dazzling Display with City’s Under-21 Side

Last season, Borges had a remarkable run with City’s Under-21 side, making 33 appearances and netting an impressive 29 goals. His scoring prowess was particularly highlighted when he pulled off four separate hat-tricks, earning him Premier League 2 Player of the Season, along with City’s EDS Players’ Player of the Year. A future away from the Etihad could provide the platform for this young star to shine brighter.
