Manchester City have confirmed the permanent transfer of defensive midfielder Máximo Perrone to Italian Serie A club Como for a fee reported to reach £13 million. The Premier League champions have also secured a 30% sell-on clause in the deal.
The Argentine youngster, who joined City in January 2023, makes the switch to Como where he is expected to continue his development with regular first-team football. This transfer marks a significant move for both the player and City’s long-term plans, ensuring that should Perrone excel and fetch a higher fee in the future, City will benefit from a sizable cut.
The deal, structured with performance-based add-ons, signals Manchester City’s confidence in Perrone’s potential and their intent to protect their investment. Meanwhile, Como make a statement of intent, acquiring a promising talent who bolsters their midfield options in one of Europe’s top leagues.
