Manchester City have been very active this January. Just like last year, they are signing important players in the winter.
The Citizens have already signed Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth. Now, they are advancing in their pursuit of Marc Guehi.
The England international has become a target for multiple clubs, including the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich.
The Bavarians already made contact with Guehi’s agent. However, Manchester City are advancing very fast.
The majority of the clubs want to sign Guehi next summer when he will become a free agent. But the Citizens are ready to pay a transfer fee to Crystal Palace to sign him in January.
However, there is another player who has become a priority for the Citizens. The interesting thing is that Manchester United also have that player on top of their list of midfield targets.
The Citizens have already beaten United early in January by signing Semenyo. Pep Guardiola’s team gave the Ghana international a better package than United.
Now, they are looking to do the same with United’s top midfield target. According to TEAMtalk, Manchester City are ready to pay big money to sign Elliot Anderson.
Also, they are ready to give Anderson the best package. As per reports, the England international is keen on a move to the Etihad Stadium.
This will be a huge blow for the Red Devils. After losing out on Semenyo, this is the last thing Manchester United want.
They are fighting for a place in the Champions League. However, things have become turbulent at Old Trafford after the sacking of Ruben Amorim.
The Red Devils are looking to appoint a caretaker manager. They want to appoint a permanent boss in the summer.
So, this uncertainty around the club could play a huge role in the transfer market, as players might choose their rivals.
