This 18-year-old becomes the first NYCFC Homegrown player to progress through the entire academy system and join a Premier League team. McFarlane joined NYCFC's academy in 2018 and steadily climbed the ranks, debuting with the first team in 2024.

"I'm incredibly honored to represent New York City FC on a global stage," said McFarlane. "It's been a privilege to grow here." He also expressed excitement about joining Manchester City and the opportunity to continue his development.

McFarlane follows in the footsteps of other NYCFC Homegrowns who've played in top European leagues, solidifying NYCFC's reputation as a breeding ground for elite talent.

This transfer underscores NYCFC's dedication to player development and its ability to produce players capable of competing at the highest levels of world football.
