Potential Man City hopeful reveals 'dream' to play for Real Madrid during his career

Future Manchester City star hopeful has expressed his desire to one day play for Real Madrid.

Savio was signed by City Football Group-owned Troyes in the summer but was immediately sent out on loan to PSV Eindhoven to gain experience in the Eredivisie. It is expected that the young Brazilian will one day turn up at the Etihad Stadium once he has served his apprenticeship in Europe.

Discussing his career ambitions with Voetbal Primeur, Savio explained: "Who is an example for me? Rodrygo’s career speaks to me enormously.

"To play with him at Real Madrid one day, that’s a dream. But I’m nowhere near that far yet and have to prove myself here first."

The teenager has so far made five appearances for PSV grabbing two assists in the process. Discussing his time in the Netherlands, Savio added: "The people here at PSV have delivered what they promised me.

"I really like that. Before I came here, I was presented with a certain picture of how things could roughly go with me in this season.

"Well, it has completely come true. I need time to adapt but will get opportunities to grow."
