The highly talented 20-year-old striker joined the club from RC Lens back in 2015. However, the move has not worked out as he would have liked and it seems that the player is gearing up for a fresh challenge.

Faupala has made just one first-team appearance for Manchester City during his time at the club. He managed to play the 90 minutes against Chelsea in the FA Cup when Manuel Pellegrini was in charge of City.

The young forward spent last season on loan at NAC Breda and Chesterfield. In Holland, he managed to score once during his four first-team appearances. Faupala then went on to score one for Chesterfield in fourteen games.

It will be interesting to see where the talented young forward ends up now. He arrived in Manchester with a lot of promise but his development has stalled since then. A change in surroundings might just work wonders for him.
