The Norwegian emerging star of Manchester City Sverre Nypan has become a member of Middlesbrough on a seasonal loan.
Club statement:
Norwegian rising star Sverre Nypan joined the club on a seasonal loan.
The highly appreciated teenage midfielder only arrives on Tesside for a month after he has been picked up by Manchester City from Rosenborg for a reported fee of £ 12.5 million.
The 18-year-old signed a five-year contract with the Premier League Giants and was recently named one of the best players in the world for his age by a British newspaper.
Sverre, a Norwegian Youth International at all levels, started his career at Rosenborg and scored 14 goals in 70 performances for the club.
Sverre met Boro fans for the first time in the Riverside on Monday when he signed signatures during the annual open training session of the club.
He is the fifth signing of the summer, after Alfie Jones, Callum Brittain, Abdoulaye Kante and Sontje Hansen to the Boro.
