Manchester City Transfers and Rumors.
Manuel Locatelli
City could ‘soon make offer’ for Sassuolo midfielder Manuel Locatelli midfielder with the chase going on.
This is according to website Calcio Mercato which featured the story today, with the latest updates on his situation today.
Valued at approximately for €40m fees, City face competition from Paris Saint Germain and Juventus.
Calciomercato records that the Premier League and the Ligue 1 sides have ‘tested the waters’ and could ‘soon make an official offer’ for the Sassuolo player.
Man City fans fear Fernandinho could be leaving.
Manchester City captain Fernandinho has sent fans a long, touching message and some think it’s a farewell post.
While reports surfaced earlier last month alleging that Fernandinho was set to sign a deal extension at the Etihad, there remains to be an official announcement from City concerning his future and supporters are hoping this latest message isn’t a goodbye.
The City captain wrote:
“What a year this has been, my dear friends.
“It has certainly a whirlwind of emotions throughout this season. The intensity of it all has been rather absurd. Firstly, I would like to say thank u to all our fans for your ongoing support.
“I can only imagine the anxiety this may have caused watching all the matches on the TV at home, but this is all over now. We have been fortunate enough to have some of our supporters back in the stadium.”
‘Untouchable’ Bernardo Silva is associated with a transfer.
Manchester City fans oppose a Bernardo Silva transfer this summer as rumors emerge the Portuguese international could leave the club.
The Telegraph report that the City playmaker could be traded as part of a club rebuild in the transfer window.
This could be difficult, though, as Silva has multiple years left remaining on his current deal with the Manchester-based club.
Gabriel Jesus could be motivated by Spurs switch.
According to a statement by the Sun, the guarantee of first-team football ‘could be enough’ to turn Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus to make the move to Tottenham Hotspur this summer.
Lately, Spurs have been touted with interest in the Brazilian as part of a potential swap deal for star striker Harry Kane – who is now understood to want out of north London this summer (Sky Sports).
Reports imply chairman Daniel Levy could ask up to £200 million for Kane with City occupied in using makeweights to bring his asking price downward.
Barcelona now crave to sign a third Manchester City star.
Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo have claimed that Barcelona are looking to invade Manchester City for a third time this season – and entice Aymeric Laporte to the Nou Camp.
The French ace is said to be keen on moving, after a season in which he dropped down the pecking order.
Laporte, 27, has been an outstanding signing for City – on the whole. Joining in January 2018, he was immediately first choice and arguably one of City’s best players during 2019-20. But this season, the signing of Ruben Dias and the return of John Stones have seen Laporte drop out of the starting XI.
Arsenal and Tottenham attempted to sign Aguero. Reports.
“Tottenham, Arsenal and Chelsea were involved in him until the last moment,” Aguero’s father revealed after his son took a large pay-cut to create a £100,000-a-week move to La Liga giants Barcelona.
Aguero’s brother hit the headlines lately, claiming that Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola ‘never wanted’ the Argentine international at the Etihad.
And the striker’s father struck a similar tone, in quotes translated by Market Research Telecast.

“I did not believe in Guardiola’s tears,” he said. “For me he never wanted (Sergio).
“As Sergio said, the exit depended on the club and the coaching staff. Until the last moment he waited for the renewal with City.”
Aguero’s eventual move to Barcelona robbed Mikel Arteta of the chance to reunite with a man he worked with during his time as Guardiola’s assistant coach.
“His character, his personality: he’s a loveable man and then one of the best talents that I’ve seen,” Arteta told Football London in May.
Erling Haaland: United, City, and Chelsea target articulate on club future.
The 20-year-old Norwegian has articulated out about his club future, betokening that he hasn’t settled on it yet.
Given that he has a release clause of £75 million, and that only becomes probably activated next summer, it sounds like he’s staying put in Dortmund.
That is much to the embarrassment of his inherent suitors, the likes of which include Manchester City (need a Sergio Aguero replacement), Manchester United (Ole Gunnar Solskjaer connection), Chelsea (Roman Abramovich is looking to dash the cash again this summer), Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Those are five clubs who can simply afford that transfer release clause fee, but BVB aren’t interested in trading.
Earlier this week, Erling Haaland talked about his club future while prepping for Euro 2021 with Norway:
“I have not taken a position on that (his future). After this international break I will go on vacation, and then I will report for pre-season.”
“I am a simple guy, when I like something I just want to have more. Like I have said before, when I score a goal I always chase the next goal. I have big dreams!
“I just won my first major trophy and it was a great feeling so I want to win trophies.”
Man City identify ‘top priority’ transfer target Bernardo Silva leaves.
Pep Guardiola has reportedly named Jack Grealish as Manchester City’s ‘top priority’ in the summer transfer window, if Bernardo Silva departs.
City are preparing their strategy for the off-season after losing to Chelsea in the Champions League final and are anticipating a busy period.
Reports have hinted some established players could be set to leave this summer, with the club possibly open to bids for Aymeric Laporte, Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling, and Riyad Mahrez.
