Manchester City enters the race for Mexico’s great pearl

As we reported on 90min, this tournament has brought a peculiar name to the fore within the Liga MX: the young Gilberto Mora, who at less than 16 years old has made his debut in the first division, also being the youngest scorer in the history of Mexican soccer.

These records naturally make the playmaker shine, but what most attracts the Xolos de Tijuana man is the naturalness with which he handles the ball, a virtue that puts Manchester City in the race for his possible signing.

Press in both Mexico and England confirm that people from the English team have been sent to the last games of the Xolos de Tijuana with the clear goal of closely monitoring Mora’s football, evaluating his signing so that he can continue with his training as a member of the City Football Group. Although there is no type of offer or open negotiation between the two parties, it is stated that the reports that the scouts have generated on Gilberto’s performance were very positive.

Mora is already considered a football prodigy internationally, therefore, in addition to the interest of Manchester City, as we reported in 90min, Gilberto received invitations from both Feyenoord and Barcelona to join their training academies and the latest reports confirm that other teams such as PSG and Milan have scheduled visits to Mexico to see Gilberto’s performance on the pitch, as he is now a starter for Xolos.
