Long time lurker...first post. This is across the street from the Highline Hotel in Chelsea. Pirlo sleepover?
Who is this? Agyiri? Or that noname defender who played vs college team?
He is from the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana who City have a connection with.
He played a couple of years ago for City youth in the Al Kaas tourney in Qatar. I believe he has also played a couple of trial games. He would have been too young to sign though at the time.

Ghanaian youngster Ernest Agyiri scores for Man City U-17 at Al Kass International Cup

Right to Dream (RtD) midfielder Ernest Agyiri continued his impressive performances at the Al Kass International U17 Cup after he scored a vital goal, as Manchester City came from behind to beat Aspire Academy 4:3 on Thursday, 16th January.Fresh from being named Most Valuable Player (MVP) in City’s first game against Chicago Fire on 15th January, substitute Agyiri was on hand to give his side a major lift in the second half.
The central midfielder made space for himself on the edge of the 18-yard area before planting the ball in the net, as City narrowed the score line to 3:2.
The Sky Blues went on to clinch a memorable victory over the home team, scoring two more goals and have thus qualified for the next round of the tournament.
RtD has two players in the Man City U-17 team. Agyiri’s RtD teammate, Collins Tanor, was also very lively in the game against Aspire Academy and could have scored had he made contact with a lovely cross from the right flank, as City went in search of the equaliser. Collins was substituted in the 68th minute.
Agyiri and Collins are expected to be in action when Manchester City comes up against European giants, Real Madrid, in the Quarter Finals on Sunday, 19th January.
The duo are on a three-week attachment at Manchester City and will return at the RtD Academy in Ghana after the tournament.

I know who Ernest Agyiri is. I was asking if it was him on that photo.He is from the Right to Dream Academy in Ghana who City have a connection with.

Wait... now he's not only smiling, but he's quoting Katrina and the Waves????
YOU MONSTERS!!! WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE WITH PIRLO???
I think it's quite likely those young guys would be signed and transferred to Wilmington at first. They aren't necessarily guys who would make instant impacts on the first team and could do well to develop a little until needed.
Ivanov is the one they obviously would need to make room for. As I said in another thread, he might be in direct competition with Mena for an international spot.
if we sign bravo thats still an extra spot we need for international
Yeah, but one shouldn't be too difficult. Trying to collect two or three more spots is must less of a sure thing.

I would, however, like to call out BlueCityRadio for stealing my MIX DISKERUD HAT TRICK claim. I'VE BEEN SAYING THIS SINCE DAY 1.

Shout out to NYCFC_Dan for making time for this. I wanted to document how wrong we will all inevitably be.

I hope he plays and plays at or near his level. Our defense needs that test and it's better to have it in the preseason. Last thing we want is our defense to feel complacent after back-to-back clean sheets.
And Drogba has arrived.
