A decade and a half ago, Mansour bin Zayed al Nahyan bought Manchester City, and five years later he founded the City Group with the clear goal of untangling his football network and covering the entire planet with it, which he eventually succeeded in doing. He added eleven clubs to the one in Manchester, at least one from each continent, and subordinated them all to the English club and its success.A ‘three-horse’ race not seen in the last decade or City’s another stroll to the title?Since its establishment, City Group has “caught” dozens, probably hundreds of talents all over the world, the best of which are immediately made available to City. The others, those with less potential, therefore cheaper, were sent to other fraternal clubs to be tempered in the hope that some of them would return from the loan ready for the highest level, but were not lucky so far. However, this season a guy appeared who passed all City Group filters!As reported by Fabrizio Romano, the first reinforcement of the current champion of England and Europe will be – Savio, the Brazilian speedster who in the current season has made the whole of Spain crazy with his performances in the jersey of Girona, one of the Cityzens’ “brother” clubs.#CFG stuff aside, Savio is a brilliant signing for #ManCity.Such an exciting winger, and a winger in the true sense of the word. Few people execute the clipped cross as well as he does in Spain and when I think about Haaland on the end of them…pic.twitter.com/PXklENMRhi— Ruairidh Barlow (@RuriBarlow) February 5, 2024 The whole of Spain, and apparently the coaching staff of the Manchester club, which decided to join Pep Guardiola’s team next season with the 19-year-old Brazilian winger. Romano claims that Savio had offers from unnamed German and English clubs, but decided to show that he is already ready to play for one of the best teams in the world.##NAJAVA_MECA_7855904##Interestingly, Savio is not owned by Girona, but arrived in Europe via Troyes, another member of the City Group, for whom he has not yet played a single game. A year and a half ago, the French club bought him from Atletico Mineiro for 6,500,000 euros and immediately sent him to PSV, but the Brazilian did not play well in the Netherlands, and this summer he was sent to Girona, where he exploded.In 27 games in all competitions for the most pleasant surprise of football Europe, Savio scored seven and set up as many goals, thus commending himself to Pep Guardiola.
