Sarsfield is believed to have offered an €8m release clause to leave Peronne, although Rapisarda has not confirmed this. However, the municipality should not be in a hurry to pay this amount. And if he accepts this amount, after Julian Alvarez, Guardiola will sign another young Argentinian Talent.
But Guardiola will not have much time to make up his mind. Several other English Premier League clubs have contacted Sarsfield to sign him. Wolverhampton had previously been approached to sign Peronne. Newcastle also went too far to sign him.
However, Perrone wants to follow Sergio Aguero’s Man City path. A phone call with Guardiola may also have triggered him in another way. However, there is no definite word on the change of football team. A waste of time could change the future destiny of this rising young star.
