TMW confirm that Reijnders is the chosen one by Pep Guardiola to reinforce the midfield of Manchester City. The English club will try to please him and bring the Dutchman in, but it will take over €60m.
With part of the money deriving from the sale of the former AZ Alkmaar man, Milan already have an idea what they will do: they will try to beat Inter to Samuele Ricci of Torino
The Nerazzurri have been moving under the radar for some time on Ricci, but he is an ‘obsession’ for Milan’s technical director Geoffrey Moncada and consequently the Rossoneri will try to steal him from their city rivals.
Torino value him between €30-35m, but Urbano Cairo hopes that an auction will be triggered to increase the price of the former Empoli man. His sale is a concrete possibility, despite his contract having been renewed in recent months until 2028
It must also be considered that Manchester City will play the Club World Cup and will want to do so with Reijnders in their squad, given that Kevin De Bruyne will be absent.
It is therefore possible that president Khaldun al-Mubarak will speed up and manage to convince Milan. The transfer window will begin on June 1, and the CWC begins on the 14th of the same month.
