The Etihad Stadium team has introduced a new face that promises to play explosively in the future.
Right in the first time starting for the first team of Man City, young talent Rico Lewis left a clear impression with the goal that set the stage for the Premier League giants to create a comeback against Sevilla.
With Man City firmly taking the top spot in Group G of the Champions League, coach Pep Guardiola made 7 changes in terms of personnel in the last encounter. It is an opportunity for Lewis in particular and the teen stars of Man City in general to express themselves.
The 17-year-old talent is training at the Man City youth academy.
Although Julian Alvarez also entered his name on the scoreboard, Lewis really captured all eyes when he became the youngest player in Man City history to score in the Champions League (17 years 346 days).
Having a knack for playing as a defender, but like his elder Joao Cancelo, Lewis is always actively involved in supporting the attack. He is considered one of the brightest talents at The Citizens academy.
In addition to the right-back position, this prodigy can also play well on the opposite wing and defensive midfielder. Last summer, Lewis was promoted from the U18 team to the U21 team.
After the recent impressive performance, it is likely that he will have more opportunities to join the main team of Man City.
