Manchester City recalled Max Alleyne from his loan with Watford during the first half of the season amid a centre-back shortage. With their options now replenished, the youngster could be sent out on a new loan deal this summer. At Watford, he was successful and built a strong relationship with the fans. If Alleyne is allowed to go out on loan again, he will have many admirers.

Max Alleyne, a central defender owned by Manchester City, has been announced as a new player for Watford on a dry loan until the end of the season. Watford's coach, Paulo Pezzolano, praised Alleyne's technical qualities and versatility, noting his ability to play on both the right and left sides despite being a natural central defender. Pezzolano also commended Manchester City's Academy for their work in developing Alleyne.
