Manchester City is reportedly preparing a £200 million offer to sign Barcelona’s Pedri this summer. The club aims to make him the highest-paid midfielder in the Premier League
Manchester City is reportedly gearing up to make a groundbreaking offer for Barcelona’s Pedri in the upcoming summer transfer window. The club is willing to shatter the British transfer record with a staggering €200 million (£171.5m) bid for the 22-year-old midfielder, underscoring their commitment to bolstering their squad.
Pedri has already established himself as a prodigious talent, boasting an impressive resume that includes nearly 200 appearances for Barcelona, 25 goals, and 20 assists. His success extends beyond club football, having won the La Liga title and the European Championship with Spain.
According to reports, Manchester City has shifted its focus to Pedri after abandoning its pursuit of Florian Wirtz, who was previously a top target to replace Kevin De Bruyne. Wirtz’s potential move to Bayern Munich appears to have derailed City’s plans, with the player’s family seemingly swayed by the German club’s overtures.
In a twist, Barcelona might have an opportunity to sign Bernardo Silva, who allegedly has a contractual clause allowing him to join the Spanish giants for £50 million. Meanwhile, Manchester City is open to offers for Jack Grealish, with Tottenham reportedly leading the charge for the England international.
