At the tender age of 10, he was making global headlines when he inspired River Plate to victory over Juventus in a seven-a-side tournament.
The young Echeverri scored four times in the contest that was captured on video, including a sublime curling effort. He ended the competition in Venice with nine goals in six games as River finished third.
Since then he has progressed through the ranks at his hometown club and secured a dream move to City. He will link up with the Blues in January having returned to River on loan and will be afforded the chance to impress Pep Guardiola and earn a first-team spot. Still only 18, Echeverri is a talented number 10 who is also capable of playing wide, and possesses the vision and creativity associated with playmakers.
