Agent reveals Man City medical passed for River Plate starlet Echeverri

The agent of River Plate starlet Claudio Echeverri has revealed he's passed his medical with Manchester City.

Enzo Mentepaeone confirmed a deal was agreed with City last week and has now offered a fresh update.

"The operation is 99% completed. He has already undergone medical examinations, the announcement will be made in the next few days," he told Radio La Red.

Echeverri will stay on-loan with River for six months before joining City in the summer.

A decision will then be made about whether he stays with City or is loaned to LaLiga partners Girona.
