- Sparta Rotterdam are interested in signing Brazilian forward Kayky on loan
- The 21-year-old has been a Manchester City player since January 2022
- Sparta Rotterdam finished in eighth place in the Eredivisie last season
Manchester City forward Kayky is attracting loan interest from Sparta Rotterdam.
The 21-year-old Brazilian is likely to leave City this summer, either on loan or on a permanent basis, as he is not yet viewed as ready for regular first-team football at the Etihad Stadium.
Kayky joined City from Fluminense in January 2022.
Pep Guardiola handed Kayky his first-team debut in a 4-1 win at Swindon in the FA Cup within a week of his arrival at City, before he made his Premier League bow in a 4-0 victory away at Norwich the following month.
But he has not played for City’s senior side since then.

Kayky spent the first half of the 2022-23 season on loan at Pacos de Ferreira in Portugal’s Primeira Liga.
He later returned to Brazil at the start of 2023 after agreeing to spend a full year on loan at Bahia.
Kayky scored four goals in 28 games for the Brazilian Serie A outfit and helped the club win the Campeonato Baiano.
This success came despite him missing a significant chunk of the season after injuring his anterior cruciate ligament.
He is now fully recovered from that setback and a year in the Eredivisie could provide him the springboard to get his promising career back on track.
Sparta Rotterdam finished eighth in the Netherlands’ top tier last season.
Kayky’s contract with City is not due to expire until June 2026.
