Manchester City busca a Florian Wirtz
Manchester City is intensifying its efforts to sign Florian Wirtz, as a possible replacement for Kevin De Bruyne, although it faces strong competition from Bayern Munich. A source revealed to Alofoke Deportes that the English club has shown interest in the German international, contacting both Bayer Leverkusen, Wirtz’s current club, and his representatives.
According to the source, Leverkusen would prefer Wirtz to join the Etihad Stadium if he decides to leave the club this summer, rather than staying in Germany playing for Bayern Munich.
It is understood that the 22-year-old player has not yet made a final decision about his future.
A source informed Alofoke Deportes that Wirtz’s parents were in the United Kingdom this week to talk with representatives from several clubs, as the competition for his signature intensifies.
City is considering the talented midfielder as a potential replacement for De Bruyne, who will leave the Etihad at the end of the season. Wirtz is among City’s transfer targets for the summer.
In addition, there is interest in Morgan Gibbs-White from Nottingham Forest and Tijjani Reijnders from AC Milan. City are also looking to sign a right-back and will consider adding a goalkeeper if Éderson is tempted by the Saudi Professional League.
