Girona announced on Sunday morning the signing of midfielder Claudio Echeverri. With the status of a promising talent, the 20-year-old Argentine was loaned until June by Manchester City.

Revealed by River Plate, Echeverri was sold at the age of 17 to the English club in January 2024. He stayed with the Argentine team until December of the same year, when he moved to Europe.

In August 2025, Echeverri was loaned by Manchester City to Bayer Leverkusen until December. With the end of the agreed period, the Argentine returned to the English club to be loaned again, now to Girona.

For Leverkusen, Echeverri played only 11 matches and provided a single assist in 270 minutes. The expectations upon his departure from Argentina were high, and the player continues to seek an answer on the field.
