“We can’t sell our player to club that don’t play Champions League Football”-Man City turned down three offers for ‘fantastic’ STAR who haven’t started any game this Season
It is said that Manchester City turned down three loan offers for Oscar Bobb during the summer transfer window. One of the offers was from Lazio, a big club in Italy.
That’s what well-known writer Fabrizio Romano says, and he also put some quotes from the player on X, which used to be Twitter.
Pep Guardiola moved Bobb up to the City first team at the start of this season after the young player did well in the club’s EDS for a while.
This season, he has been on all but two of City’s matchday squads, and he has played seven times across all divisions. He was on the team’s pre-season tour of Asia.
While Bobb played for a new team this season, City seemed adamant that he was not going anywhere…
It was said by Fabrizio Romano that Bobb was wanted during the summer window. “Man City turned down three loan offers for Oscar Bobb in August, one of which was from Lazio,” he said.
For sides looking to borrow the talented winger, the Norway international was in high demand, even though he hadn’t played for City’s first team yet.
Romano says that three offers were made for Bobb, and one of them was from Lazio, a big club in Italy that is playing in the Champions League this season.
But City turned down all three offers, likely because they thought the young player was ready to play for the first team after his success in the EDS.
Martin Odegaard recently called Bobb “fantastic” on the ball. So far, Bobb has only had a few chances to show what he can do, but he’s looked pretty good in those few games.
The game City played against Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup was possibly his best. Even though Guardiola’s team lost, Bobb got a lot of praise because he was probably City’s best player that night. The boss even called him “more than brilliant.”
It’s clear that City trust Bobb
What you say about one of the best chances at the Etihad Stadium right now is interesting.
Even though he hadn’t played for the City first team yet, Bobb was very interested in him. This shows that clubs pay close attention to the club’s EDS.
While it might have been easy to let Bobb go on loan, it looks like they really believe he can make a difference in Pep’s first team. He’s already been given a lot of chances to do well.
One has to wonder if he will end up like Phil Foden and Rico Lewis, who both came up through the school and have never been loaned out.
Bobb has said that he would not go on loan if he could, because he loves playing for City. It would be great to see him do well at the Etihad without first going somewhere else.
