Manchester City have opted to leave Brazilian defender Vitor Reis out of their Champions League squad. Despite this decision, the club maintains its long-term plans for the player, who was acquired for €35 million in January.
Adjustment Period for Reis
Reis, who joined Manchester City from Palmeiras, is still adapting to European football. Unlike the other three recent signings, who have prior experience in Europe, Reis requires additional time to acclimatise to the new environment and style of play.
Background on Vitor Reis
The 20-year-old defender made headlines with his record transfer from Palmeiras to Manchester City. Known for his strong defensive skills and versatility, Reis is expected to be a valuable asset for the team in the future. His exclusion from the Champions League squad is seen as a strategic move to allow him to develop and integrate into the team at a comfortable pace.
