CFG wish to employ the 'Savinho plan' for Gustavo, where they would sign the attacking midfielder and place him within their club network with a view to eventually signing him for City.

Gustavo, an U17 Brazil international, has a contract to 2025 with a buyout clause set at €50m.

However, CFG will seek to negotiate a much lower price for the youngster.
