There’s a player that English Premier League (EPL) side Manchester City desperately want. It’s a player that the greatest coach of all time, Pep Guardiola, also desperately wants.

That player is Leipzig center back Josko Gvardiol. Gvardiol has been a starter for Leipzig and has impressed for Croatia at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. He’s also only 21 years old. He could be the future of the team.

The reason why Pep and City want Gervinho is because they want to continue their dominance next season. Guardiola is focusing on strengthening the defense.토토사이트

Last season, City won the EPL, the FA Cup, and the UEFA Champions League (UCL) to complete the treble. It’s harder to get to the top than it is to stay there. To stay on top, City wants the best defender in the world.

To do so, they’ve set a record transfer fee for a defender. 100 million euros ($141.1 billion). City are preparing to sign a €100 million defender. The previous record transfer fee for a defender was €80 million ($111.8 billion) for Harry Maguire.

Germany’s Bild reported, “Man City want to make Gervinho the world’s highest transfer fee for a defender. This is to further strengthen the defense of the traveling team. City have made a new bid of €100 million, including add-ons. City will sell Emmrecht Laporte to sign Gervinho.”
