The England youth international operates primarily from the left wing but is comfortable on either flank and is two-footed, attributes that make him a versatile option in any forward setup.

What role could he play at City?

It remains unclear whether Monga will be immediately involved with the first team or begin his time at the club through the academy. Pre-season could provide an early opportunity—City are scheduled to tour Hong Kong and Seoul, a trip that other youngsters including Vitor Reis, Sverre Nypan, and Divine Mukasa may also join.

With City's attack already loaded with established internationals, first-team minutes may come gradually. However, those who have worked closely with Monga believe his ceiling is high.

The mentality of a potential star

Callum Powell, who ran specialist one-to-one coaching sessions at CP Coaching Academy in Coventry when Monga was just 11, spoke to BBC Sport about the teenager's qualities.
