Julio Enciso claims his agent did not inform him of Manchester City’s interest.

Julio Enciso claims that his agent failed to inform him of Manchester City’s rumored interest in the Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder.

Earlier this month, The Mirror reported that Pep Guardiola is interested in the 19-year-old and could make a future transfer move for him.

When asked about the rumors tying him to a move to the Etihad Stadium, Enciso had this to say in a recent interview with Tigo Sports (via Roberto Rojas).

He said: “My agent didn’t tell me anything about that. The same thing happened when I moved to Brighton.

“I think if it’s going to happen, it will & if not then I need to continue to work hard. It gives me a lot of motivation to have teams show interest.”

Enciso’s standout rookie season Brighton signed the teenager from Libertad Asuncion in the previous summer transfer window for a reported amount of £9.5 million.

In 20 games in his first Premier League season, the Paraguayan scored four goals and supplied two assists.

In reality, his final goal of the season came in Brighton’s 1-1 draw versus City in their penultimate match of the season, sealing the south coast club’s place in Europe next season.

This goal also won the Match of the Day Goal of the Season award.

Following the 1-1 draw with City, Seagulls manager Roberto De Zerbi stated that Enciso has the potential to develop his game if he continues at Brighton.

It’s unusual to hear that the attacker’s agency was not made aware of the Manchester club’s apparent interest in him.

Moving forward, with Brighton’s past record of selling some of its finest players, it appears likely that if their young prodigy continues to improve and dazzle on the pitch, interest in him will grow.
