The Loan Back to River Plate
As part of the deal, Echeverri will remain on loan at River Plate until January 2025. This decision reflects Manchester City's strategy of investing in young talents and allowing them to develop further at their current clubs.
River Plate, managed by former City defender Martin Demichelis, will continue to nurture Echeverri's skills for another year, providing him with a platform to grow and gain more first-team experience before he makes the move to Manchester City.
