Man City could land No 1 midfield target in sensational swap involving two £100m players
Manchester City could land their favourite midfield target from a Premier League rival this summer by offering a £100million player to them.
City will allow Kevin De Bruyne to leave the club very soon, at the conclusion of his contract. Though the Club World Cup begins prior to the Belgian’s contract ending, it’s likely he has playe his last game in a City shirt.
He felt he could have gone on – and was directly involve in 14 goals this term – but the แทงบอล UFABET ราคาดีที่สุด ไม่มีขั้นต่ำ Citizens chose not to offer him a new deal.
As such, they are on the hunt for a new attacking midfielder, and it has long suggeste that Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White is right at the top of their list.
The Englishman was one of Forests’s very best assets this season, and they reportedly value him at £100million.
In order to let him go, the City Ground outfit could ‘look to sign either Jack Grealish or James McAtee as part of a swap’ for Gibbs-White.
Insider Pete O’Rourke said: “Swap deals are notoriously hard in the Premier League, but we know Morgan Gibbs-White is a major target for Manchester City this summer.
“He’s had a very good season for Forest — seven goals and ten assists. He’s under contract at the City Ground until 2027.
“If they get an offer which is too good to turn down, Forest might have to let him move to City, to work under Pep Guardiola. You’d probably be thinking that Forest will be looking to double their investment.
