Is he part of our new Buy to Let business model for young foreign players? Or is he a player with some semblance of a chance of playing for City? I know nothing of him so any details would be appreciated.

Awesome

No clue what this model is about but it's got a tiny bit human trafficky.

Are these lads drug mules or sex slaves?

Is Liam Neeson looking for any of them?

Cheers

Loaned out for sure, another half million in the pot! Their official site (roughly translated):

Pablo Marí ficsigns for el Manchester City FC

Gymnastic de Tarragona are transferring the Valencian defender to the English club. Pablo Maru ends his stay in Taragona after 3 seasons and 90 matches wearing the T shirt.

The young player from Almussafes leaves Vicente Moreno's team after being one of the key pieces of the defensive set-up in the rise up to silver (?) category, season 14/15. The defender has accumulated nearly 8000 minutes in the defence, scoring 6 goals in the process.

Gymastic thanks Pablo Mari Villar for the commitment, discipline and hard work which he has brought during these 3 years in the first team. We wish him lots of luck both in his personal and professional life with his new team, Manchester City FC.

Let me guess, loan with obligation to buy in January and some dodgy buy-back clause?

Promotion to the 2nd division.

Cheers. Thought it might be something like that but it would've been a guess!

Girona/Pep's brother it is:

...........................Mari is set to go straight out on loan to Gimnàstic’s fellow Spanish second-tier side Girona as the City manager Pep Guardiola wheeled and dealed in his home country. The 22-year-old had been with Gimnàstic since 2013, making 90 appearances..........................................
