Ole says City management are concerned and prepared to recall the midfielder during the winter market.
Indeed, City chiefs have decided if Echeverri hasn't played at least half the minutes available to him at Bayer between now and January, they will cut short his loan and send him elsewhere for the second-half of the season.
In Argentina, there is hope City will agree to send Echeverri back to River Plate, though there is an acceptance such chances are slim.
