Luca Netz refused transfer to Manchester City

Junior national player Luca Netz (Borussia Mönchengladbach) said he refused a “nonsense” transfer to the English champions Manchester City three years ago. That’s what the 18-year-old said image.

When asked about his rejection of the Citizens and the reasons for it, Netz explained: “Because I think it’s nonsense to switch to City at such a young age.”

The left-back was still under contract with Hertha BSC at the time. After eleven years with the old lady, he moved to Gladbach last summer for a € 4 million transfer fee and signed a contract dated until 2026. There he is developing well and has already completed four appearances (one assist) for the professionals this season.

Netz, in which FC Bayern had previously shown interest, would also be against a move to ManCity: “Even if I were to get another offer now, I would refuse. I have a clear plan and it’s up to date Premier League just way too early. First of all, it is important for me to play at Borussia, to gain experience and to develop continuously. Then you will see what happens in a few years. “
