As Premier League champions Manchester City close in on a move for RSC Anderlecht's Sergio Gomez, we analyse the Spaniard's abilties.

It’s surprising to hear he wouldn’t be part of the city first team if he signed, especially given there aren’t many other internal options at the position at this point in time. He had 10 assists in the League within the first four months of the season. He has the safe option of Josh Cullen inside, but he uses his right foot to play a tough pass into the channel. It’s easy to imagine him punishing teams down the flanks as with Erling Haaland’s arrival, teams will have to overload the center to try and stop his elite movement. He’s an accurate crosser who can get power on the ball from standstill positions. Analysing the defensive nature of full-backs can be difficult, especially in teams that dominate the ball. Players who attempt the aggressive option and convert it regularly are hard to find, but Gomez ticks this box. Essentially, it shows Gomez is playing in a system that uses him high and wide. Gomez was arguably Anderlecht’s most important player this year. @ManCityremain in the market for a senior recruit at left-back and are considering various options. A system which requires wingers to stay narrow will fall apart without dynamic and pacey full backs, but Gomez’s left hand side was pivotal to Anderlecht’s attacking effectiveness. Take the sequence below.

Manchester City have agreed a fee for Anderlecht left-back Sergio Gomez, who won their Player of the Year award last season.

His return of seven goals and 15 assists from left-back last season shows a player who didn't take long to add his natural attacking abilities to a new position. He also still has his speed of execution, Sergio is someone who can speed up the attacking game. Sergio can do that, thanks to his great handling of the ball. David Fernandez, a youth coach of Gomez's, said to have 'discovered' the Spaniard, told HLN last year: “Sergio was six years old when I first saw him at work at his first club Badalona – a local team in Barcelona. I was a youth coach at Espanyol Barcelona at the time and I did not hesitate, we immediately went to get him. It could have happened in the semi-finals of the World Cup. Sergio has the necessary mentality to improve after such a mistake. That is where the club's extensive scouting system will identify whether a quality player has the right attitude to back up their on-pitch talent.
