Real Zaragoza’s Alberto Soro is reportedly a target for Premier League champions Manchester City as well as La Liga duo Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Manchester City have joined the race to sign Alberto Soro from Real Zaragoza this summer, according to Spanish publication El Periodico de Aragon.
The 20-year-old attacking midfielder has been hugely impressive for the second tier side this season, scoring twice in 21 games, and he was rewarded with a four-year contract back in October – complete with a £7.6 million release clause.
And the report claims that Manchester City are keen on adding Soro to their legion of exciting and technically gifted youngsters.
It is suggested that the Premier League champions would loan the youngster to their sister club Girona should the deal come off. Girona, who are battling relegation from La Liga, have offered £1.7 million but more than likely cannot afford to trigger his release clause.
AS claimed earlier this week that Barcelona are also circling. Technical director Ramon Planes has scouted him five times this season alone with Real Madrid keen on the Zaragoza local lad too.
El Periodico de Aragorn agrees that Barcelona and Real Madrid are interested but could he be playing La Liga football with Girona next season, with the help of Manchester City?
