Manchester City lost to Real Madrid and will now prepare to fight for the title next season. To do so, Man City buys Erling Haaland. The English club announced that it has reached an agreement in principle with Borussia Dortmund to transfer the striker on July 1, 2022. The transfer of Haaland to coach Pep Guardiola’s team still depends on the club finalizing terms with the player. It was reported that Man City would pay Borussia Dortmund a €75 million kickback for the striker, while Erling in England would receive £350,000 a week plus bonuses. It was also claimed that Haaland would cost Man City almost 250 million euros, including salary. It should be recalled that the striker joined Borussia in January 2020. In two and a half seasons, he scored 85 goals in 88 games for the German club and provided 23 assists.
Paul Pogba could also move to Manchester City from Manchester United. Man City are considering signing the midfielder as a free agent this summer, The Guardian reports. The Frenchman himself is ready to move to Pep Guardiola. The Spanish coach believes Pogba can play deeper in midfield than he currently does. Man City are ready to offer Paul a four-year contract with the possibility of an extension for another season. The midfielder may have to take a pay cut.
Bernardo Silva could leave Manchester City. Barcelona are interested in the Portugal midfielder. The Catalan club wants to sign top-level players to increase competition and the level of the team. Xavi wants a variety of options in the center of the field. The coach would like Barça to sign a player who can pair up with Pedri. One of the most attractive options for Barcelona is the 27-year-old Portuguese, writes Mundo Deportivo.
Organizing such a deal is not easy, but the attacking midfielder is still thinking about moving to another championship, he has thoughts of leaving England. Last season, Barça already made an inquiry about Bernard, and even then it was clear that the midfielder would be happy to be in La Liga. Xavi has a lot of sympathy for Silva.
It’s a difficult deal from an economic point of view. In addition, Bernardo is an important player for Pep Guardiola. Barcelona could include midfielder Franky de Jong in the deal, who will only change clubs if a top-level midfielder comes in. Bernardo has scored 13 goals and given six assists in 47 games for Man City in all competitions this season.
Also, midfielder Raheem Sterling could leave Manchester City. He may move to another APL club. According to The Telegraph, Arsenal is ready to try to sign the 27-year-old player in the summer, when his contract with Man City will be a year away from expiring. Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta has already worked with Sterling when he was part of Man City’s coaching staff and sees Raheem as a player capable of becoming a key part of the Londoners’ attack.
Sterling’s future will be decided at the end of this season, as the Englishman wants to focus on the last matches. If negotiations with Manchester City do not end with the signing of a new deal, the option of selling the player in the summer of 2022 becomes likely. In the 2021/22 season, Sterling scored 12 goals in 28 games in the EPL.
