Manchester City has a strong history of acquiring young talent from various English clubs. Over the years, they have brought in promising players like Jamal Baptiste, Finley Gorman, and Harrison Parker from different teams across the country.
This summer, City has also witnessed several academy prospects leave for loan deals or permanent transfers, including Callum Doyle, Mahamadou Susoho, and Micah Hamilton.
Recently, it has been revealed that City has secured a deal for another talented youngster who made a name for himself at a Premier League club’s youth ranks. Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano announced that Manchester City has reached an agreement with West Ham to sign 19-year-old Divin Mubama for a fee of £1.2m.
Mubama’s impressive goal-scoring record for West Ham’s youth teams, as well as his brief senior team appearances, showcase his potential as a future star. With his knack for finding the back of the net, it’s clear why City pursued him and invested in his future.
As Mubama prepares to sign a long-term deal with Manchester City, the question remains whether he will have the opportunity to showcase his skills under Pep Guardiola. Only time will tell if this young talent will get the chance to shine on the big stage at the Etihad Stadium.
