Despite Pep Guardiola’s insistence that the club was interested in Jude Bellingham, Manchester City is planning to begin a pursuit of one of the most talented players in Europe that will cost them 125 million pounds.
Man City has had a season that has been extremely disappointing, and Liverpool is finally going to break their four-year hold on the Premier League. This will be the end of their chokehold on the league altogether.
Due to their early elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Real Madrid, the team managed by Guardiola is in danger of only winning the Community Shield. The FA Cup is their only opportunity to win a trophy after their early elimination from the competition.
Due to the fact that City is expected to have their worst season in recent history, it is essential that they make a comeback in the following season. It is believed that a marquee signing is the ideal way to ensure success in this endeavour.
Defensa Central reports that Guardiola endeavoured with great fervour to persuade Bellingham to depart from Madrid during the summer. However, this endeavour has been unsuccessful, prompting City to search for a suitable replacement.
Considering that Bellingham is no longer an option, City has reportedly turned their attention to Florian Wirtz, an attacker for Leverkusen. According to the report, a bid of €150 million (£125.5 million) could be made during the summer.
As a result of Wirtz’s ability to carry his form from Leverkusen’s unbeaten Bundesliga campaign into Euro 2024 and beyond, City has been keeping a close eye on him for quite some time now.
City would face competition from Bayern Munich for the signature of the German youngster, who is currently under contract with Leverkusen until 2027. If City were to make a bid for the midfielder, they would face competition from Bayern Munich.
David Ornstein provides an update on the 115 charges.
The ongoing legal battle that City is engaged in with the Premier League regarding their 115 charges is another factor that casts doubt on the club’s situation.
An update on when a verdict can be anticipated was provided by David Ornstein during his most recent question and answer session on The Athletic.
“People have been saying things like ‘imminent’, ‘this week’, and ‘tomorrow’ for a very long time now, and that demonstrates that the majority of us simply do not know – probably only a small number of those involved in the process do know.” his writing stated.
“At Manchester City, the anticipation has been that’spring’ will arrive, and if that’s the case, we’re excited about that.” On the other hand, this would imply that we might have to wait until the end of June!
