Yan Couto | On loan at Girona

[McfcK]

 

[Gabriel]

Just tuned in to watch Sporting Lisbon play Braga, the battle of our right backs, but Couto isn’t even in the squad, COVID, and Porro is out as well, muscle injury.

Somebody put together a Braga highlight viddy of YC ...

 

[shroom]

made the list of 2022 Goldenboy nominees, along with Filip Stevanovic, fwiw

City duo combine to get a late draw for Girona @ Espanyol. Yangel Herrera came on at 71m, Yan Couto came on at 81m - and the pair created a nice goal late to get a road point for a 2-2 final score. Video should start at 2:08 for you.

Yan Couto has been called up to the Brazil NT. They've had lots of injuries and circumstances fell Couto's way. Congrats - a stint with the NT goes a long way toward getting a work permit ... if I understand the rules correctly.

I'm reasonably certain he's got a Portuguese passport, not sure why I think that but I'm relatively certain that's the case

He does.

I've seen msgs of congratz from all over for Yan - Girona FC, SC Braga, tons of players in Europe and Brazil, pundits ... but haven't seen City acknowledge his nat'l team call up and debut in any way, shape or form. Have I just overlooked it? Anybody noticed any response from City?

Not a big deal for one of our players to be an international

You have to play in a certain % of the games over a set time period IIRC. Where the country is in the FIFA rankings has an impact aswell but obviously no issues with Brazil.

It used to depend on what that kerb crawler Pleat thought, and he thinks there’s only one club in “Manchester” (the one that used to be quite good a very long time ago). He will be fine getting a work permit with another club, ask Douglas Luiz

 

[Delphinho]

Playing well vs Barcelona atm. Created a goal with this pass:

 

[HoneyMonster89]

I wonder if he'll end up like Angeliño and Pedro Porro. They both did well out on loan for years, but never really got a proper go a City.

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

Congrats on the National call up and great start to the season at Club level. Wish him well in his career, more important is he develops his game and professional mentality.

This kid is gonna be something special. Was the best player on the pitch for them today.

Set up the first 2 goals and won the penalty that made it 3-0.

Is he still on loan or did we get rid?

On loan. City may have to make a decision at the end of this season if he continues this level of performances.

 

[Haaland94]

Looking at Walker this season, we may want to reconsider our stance on Couto and give him a chance after his loan ends.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

I watched him and he's still very raw in possession. Gives it away quite cheaply at times and his defending is questionable.

But... He does have a special talent in attacking areas with his crossing / vision.

As a right wing back, yes, as a right back I'm not too sure for the prem..
