Overview
- Manchester City sent the 19-year-old to Bayer Leverkusen on a season-long loan with no purchase option, and Kicker reported a €2 million fee paid to City.
- Echeverri has logged about 35 minutes across two substitute outings for Leverkusen so far and has yet to start a match.
- The Athletic reported City hold a recall clause that can only be activated in the January window, ruling out an immediate return.
- Leverkusen sporting director Simon Rolfes said the club expect Echeverri to remain, even as the player seeks selection for Argentina at the U-20 World Cup in Chile.
- UEFA rules would allow the loanee to face his parent club, with City drawn against Leverkusen in the Champions League.
