The Argentinian spent two unsuccessful loan spells at Valencia and Cordoba last season and failed to make City’s 25-man Premier League squad this term.
His omission from the squad left his immediate future in doubt and the 22-year-old joined Championship outfit Middlesbrough on loan until the beginning of January.
After making six appearances, including one in a shock Capital One Cup win over Manchester United, Zuculini returned to the Etihad, only to be loaned out again until the end of the campaign.
New AEK Athens manager Gus Poyet recognised Zuculini’s talents, having watched him make a cameo appearance in last season’s Community Shield clash against Arsenal, and recruited him for his new venture.
Fans of the Citizens will be hoping that the ex-Racing Club man can impressed in Greece and show incoming boss Pep Guardiola why he deserves to be given a chance at the club in the future.
