Girona manager opens up on future of ‘best player he has ever had’, Savio amid pending Manchester City transfer.
Uncertainty appears to remain over the future of Brazilian international winger Savio, following the latest comments from Girona manager Míchel.
It’s widely understood that Man City and ESTAC Troyes have reached an agreement over the transfer of Savio. Savio has excelled in Girona’s hugely successful campaign and qualification for European football next season.
Spanish media sources says that Man City are currently planning for Savio to join pre-season with their first-team squad.
The deal has however been met by anger from those within French football. Savio failed to make a single appearance for the club despite his vast talents.
“Maybe they think because it’s Troyes, we’re not going to be vigilant.
“I find that problematic. I just want to say to them: ‘Get out of here, French football doesn’t need you’. I’m not ashamed to say it, we don’t need them.” – said Journalist Jérôme Rothen.
Savio has been excellent in Girona
The Spanish side Girona qualified UEFA Champions League qualification for the 2024/25 season. Manager Míchel has been asked on the future of winger Savio. He’s been a star figure in the La Liga side’s achievements this season.
“He is the best player I have ever had,” – said Míchel. “I don’t know if he is a ESTAC Troyes or Manchester City player, but I know he is not our player. We’ll discuss it later.”
Moreover, Savio has played an integral role in the goalscoring form of Girona in La Liga particularly. He scored eight goals and has nine assists in his 33 Spanish top-flight appearances.
Although, Sávio received his first call-up to the Brazil senior team for their friendly matches against England. The forward made his debut against England, which ended in a 1–0 victory.
