The Athletic reported that Manchester City will sign the 16-year-old star from Aston Villa to strengthen the youth training echelon after Freddy Laurie's scholarship contract expires.
Laury joined Villa from Port Vier in September 2023, and has completed his debut in England's U16 echelon by the end of August 2024. He has made 8 appearances for this age group.
The 16-year-old player plays the most frequently in the midfield, but has also served as a central defender in the national team.
Laury's contract expires this summer. Villa had provided generous renewal conditions, but Manchester City is expected to successfully intercept the nobility, and for this reason, it is necessary to pay compensation for youth training to the Premier League opponent.
This is another move in Manchester City's busy summer window. Although sports director Begiristan was replaced by Viana, the club's transfer operation has not stopped. Although Viana is more focused on first-team affairs, it is reported that he has continued Begiristan's support for the youth training system and continues to support youth training director Thomas Krucken, college recruitment director Sam Fargbemi and youth team recruitment director Carl Walker. The trio once again delivered an excellent youth training report card this season.
