Borges Shows Interest in Prolonging Bristol City Stay
Exciting developments are afoot at Bristol City as defender Neto Borges has expressed a keen interest in extending his tenure with the club beyond the current season. The 29-year-old, hailing from Brazil, has made a substantial impact since his loan move from Middlesbrough on the final day of the September transfer window.
Strong Influence on the Pitch
Borges, a dynamic left-back, has featured in 13 matches for the Robins, solidifying his position in the starting lineup in nine out of the last 12 league games. His consistent performances have not just won over fans, but are beginning to shape discussions about his future at the club.
Future Prospects at Ashton Gate
In a candid conversation about his future with the club, Borges indicated his openness to remain at Ashton Gate. "Definitely, yes, if the conversation happens I'm open to it," said Borges. He acknowledges his current status as a loanee but remains optimistic about the possibilities, adding, "I know I'm on loan here but you never know the future. I'm not saying I'm going to be here next year, because I don't know the plans of the guys here, but I'm part of the team this season, so I'm enjoying my time here."
