32 | Maximo Perrone - 2023/24 | On loan at Las Palmas

Fornplayers as you say sky is the limit, we don't send them on loan. Once he goes on loan it's all over

Like McAtee?

Loan to Girona and then eventually sold

We have 3 DM's on the roster.. Rodri, Kalvin and him.

The only reason the Rice transfer hasn't happened is probably because City really rate this kid internally, and don't want to block his progress.

He may get a McAtee development loan but I don't think he's gonna be sold.. not when Benefica wanted him to replace Enzo Fernandez and play him everyday.

Benefica are not idiots.. they really know how to spot and develop talent!

He's not really a DM though.

I suspect he is of the Kovacic/Lewis mold.

The controlling attacking midfielder playing behind the striker and more dynamic midfielder (KdB, Foden, McAtee, Bobb) but ahead of the true DM (Rodri, Philips) and Hybrid CB (Stones, Rodri).

My personal opinion is he was signed as emergency cover in January as we had low midfield numbers and an injury would have left us effed. Once we have restocked the midfield this summer, I think he will be loaned out and then sold and this was probably always the intention.

Supposedly Barca is interested in Girona FC's CDM Oriol Romeu. Can't hurt Perrone's quest for MF mins ... if a loan there truly develops.

Any update on where this kid figures?

I like the look of him and wish him well for the season ahead, hopefully playing for us.

Still buzz he might loan to Girona. Interesting note from a Spanish journo -> Max has dual citizenship: Spain and Argentina

I just don’t think that’s true about Rice, he’s a London boy and Arteta is doing great work with young players
