Chelsea young talent has decided to depart the club. Manchester City won the race for forward

The young talent from Chelsea, Ryan McAidoo, has decided to leave the club, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

According to sources, the talented forward, born in 2008, has opted to join Manchester City. The "Cityzens" have intercepted the player, outbidding other leading clubs in the English Premier League.

It is noted that a deal between City and the player has already been concluded, and he will be playing in the "Blues'" academy.

Earlier reports had indicated that Arsenal was the favorite to sign McAidoo, who had represented England at the U16 and U17 levels last year. However, evidently, City's offer proved more enticing for the 16-year-old forward.

Previously, it was reported that Manchester City planned to disrupt the transfer market with a sensational signing from a rival club.
