Manchester City players are still trying unsuccessfully to realize their dream of winning the Champions League. Recently, Real Madrid thwarted their plans, but now they want to finally achieve their goal. Despite this, there is already talk at the Etihad Stadium of potential transfers for next year. In order to achieve them, you must first get rid of unnecessary players. One of them got the green light to look for a new employer.
Aymeric Laporte will leave Manchester City. FC Barcelona and Real Madrid roll up their sleeves
Manchester City does not hide its interest in one of the revelations of last year’s World Cup in Qatar, Croatia’s Josko Gvardiol. However, in order to finalize the transfer of the 21-year-old, you need to get rid of someone from the current team. According to Foot Mercato, the choice fell on Aymeric Laporte, who has long been no longer a leading figure in Pep Guardiola’s team. The Spaniard should have no problems finding a new club as he has been on the radar of Real Madrid and FC Barcelona for a long time.
Laporte moved to Manchester in January 2018 when he was signed for €65m from Athletic Bilbao. The Spaniard has made 15 appearances for City this season in all competitions, with a total of 170 games to his name, in which he scored 12 goals. His contract runs until the end of June 2025. Transfermarkt values him at €38 million.
