Pep Guardiola focuses on renewing Manchester City, with potential $100 million bid for a player

A busy summer is looming on the blue side of Manchester. Despite having invested no less than 212 million euros in four players in the past winter market, the revolution that Pep Guardiola is planning has only just begun.

After the announcement of the painful departure of what for many is the best player in the history of Manchester City, Kevin de Bruyne, the sports management that will be led by Hugo Viana, with the help of Txiki Berigistain, has already identified the ideal replacement: Florian Wirtz.

The ‘Mirror’ newspaper has alluded to the ‘citizen’ interest in the German international from Bayer Leverkusen and has stated that the ‘skyblue’ team would be willing to offer 100 million pounds (117.5 million dollars) to take over his services. In addition, the aforementioned media informs that the player would be offered an astronomical long-term contract.

Bayer Leverkusen will fight to keep Wirtz

Likewise, the ‘aspirin team’ has no intention of losing its top star and will do everything possible to retain it. And, in case he has to leave, a bid will be initiated that will inflate his price surely above 100 million pounds.

The slump that Xabi Alonso’s squad has suffered has not individually affected Wirtz, who beyond the setback he has suffered with a ligament injury to his ankle, has played everything and at a great level, scoring 15 goals and distributing 13 assists in 39 matches.
