Levante sporting dir Manolo Salvador wanted by Txiki

He works for City Football Group as the Global Technical Director. He does not work at City. Well done on making the same mistake that a bunch of uninformed journalists have also made.

You could just apologise for your bizarre tone. Being correct all the time on the internet isn't that important.

He wants him to head up our Spanish and presumably Portuguese scouting departments as part of CFG.

And Rodolfo Borrell doesn't even work for City either, so you can stop that crap straight away

Eh?

Can't find anything more recent than this, someone's put this up before.

Taken right out of the NYCFC website and it says Manchester City FC youth technical director. I don't know if he works at CFG as well, but seems to be having a position at the club as well.

Judging from Levante's position in La Liga I would not get over excited about him joining City. If he cannot get together sufficient talent to do better than 1 point above relegation in a league who's bottom half is around our league 1 standard how would he suddenly be good for us. Looks like jobs for my mates to me.

NYCFC is notoriously crap at getting these sort of things right for the record. But he doesn't have a direct position at the club, he has a direct position at CFG which involves him working at all of the Academies we own and some of the affiliate ones too. He is essentially doing Mark Allen's job at the CFG level.

It is a slightly odd fit though, as he really has never had a job even slightly related to what he'd do here. Levante rarely spend more than a couple hundred thousand per window on transfers, mainly just bringing in players who couldn't find other clubs and fancy using Levante as a shop window for their talents. He's done a fantastic job at that, making some big profits on people like Keylor Navas and Caicedo, but I don't know exactly how that translates to scouting world class talent?

You're right, his job at Levante was twenty times harder than the job he can do here actually for all of the reasons that you mentioned

This is the man who signed Felipe Caicedo from City for £880,000 then sold him weeks later for £6.5m+ and has a good reputation at Levante.

If we are looking for staff who can turn a good profit by selling high lets nick whoever was responsible for selling Fernando and Mangala to us.
