There have been reports that Manchester City has reached a “secret agreement” in advance of a summer transfer deal worth fifty million pounds.
Following a terrible run of form that left City trailing behind the likes of Liverpool and Arsenal in the Premier League, the reigning champions of England enjoyed a busy transfer window in January thanks to their ability to strengthen their roster.
In an effort to reignite their season, Manchester City splashed the cash. Players such as Vitor Reis (£30 million), Abdukodir Khusanov (£33 million), Omar Marmoush (£67 million), and Nico Gonzalez (£50 million) were among those who arrived at the Etihad Stadium in the form of transfers.
Additionally, it was widely reported that Manchester City had an interest in Andrea Cambiaso, a star player for Juventus; however, that interest did not materialise because the club chose to concentrate their spending on other areas.
Presently, there are rumours circulating that City and Juventus had a covert agreement regarding the Italian player.
The confidential agreement reached by Manchester City in advance of the summer transfer window
According to a report by Tutto Sport, City and Juventus had reached an agreement on a fee of fifty million pounds; however, the transfer did not take place because the English champions would rather spend their money elsewhere.
However, it has been suggested that the Blues would be eager to rekindle their interest in Cambiaso when the summer transfer window opens. This is something that has been suggested.
It has been reported that Pep Guardiola is looking to add a long-term replacement for Kyle Walker, who left the club in January to join AC Milan on loan. Cambiaso is a candidate that could be selected for this responsibility.
Due to the fact that they had previously reached an agreement on the transfer fee, it has been stated that reviving the deal during the summer should not be a problem for any of the parties involved.
Recently, Guardiola made the following statement in reference to the spending spree that City engaged in during the month of January: “The club decided to bring in an additional player in the final third with talent, scoring, running, assists, and set pieces.”
To my knowledge, with the exception of Aymeric Laporte, we never participated in the winter transfer. Every time, we want to see it through to the end, but this is an exceptional circumstance, and this season is exceptional for a lot of different reasons. For the season to come to a successful conclusion, we ought to step in and intervene.
Leyton Orient is the opponent that City will face this coming weekend in the fourth round of the FA Cup. City will be back in action this weekend.
