According to an update by reputed Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, another unnamed Premier League club is keeping tabs on Kennet Eichhorn’s situation as well. The 16-year-old is highly rated across Europe, and he has a bright future.
He could develop into a top-class player with the right guidance, and it is no surprise that Manchester City and other Premier League heavyweights are interested in him. They need more quality and depth in that area of the pitch.
Manchester City have been overly dependent on Rodri, and the Spanish international needs more support. Pep Guardiola also has Nico Gonzalez at his disposal, but it is clear that the Manchester City boss does not trust him adequately. Signing the 16-year-old could be a wise decision for Manchester City.
The German wonderkid is a tremendous talent, and Guardiola could play a key role in his development. Manchester City are among the wealthiest clubs in the world, and they have the financial resources to get the deal done. It remains to be seen whether they come forward with an attractive offer for the German midfielder in the summer.
Hertha BSC will not want to lose a talented young player like him easily, but they could be under pressure to sanction his departure if a lucrative offer comes in.
Eichhorn is already putting up impressive numbers in the second division of German football, and the 16-year-old midfielder will be attracted to the idea of joining Manchester City as well. The Citizens are among the biggest clubs in the world, and he will want to fight for major trophies with them.
Even though the German midfield sensation might not be ready for the Premier League yet, he has the technical attributes to compete at a high level and could establish himself as a regular starter for the English club in the coming seasons.
Manchester City have a proven track record of regularly fighting for trophies. The 16-year-old will be attracted to the idea of winning league titles and the UEFA Champions League with them. Meanwhile, clubs in Germany are keen on signing player as well. It remains to be seen whether he is prepared to continue in Germany or move abroad.
