Tijjani Reijnders will be the big player to keep hold of this summer for AC Milan with Manchester City registering their interest.
It seems that the Reijnders to City story will only continue to grow from this point, and despite the fact that he signed a new deal recently, there is a fear already of his departure. However, it is no shock. This season, the midfielder has established himself as one of the best out there, and Pep Guardiola is infatuated.
Calciomercato.com report this afternoon that Pep Guardiola has the Dutchman as his ‘primary objective’ in midfield and the Spaniard has been tracking obsessively him for around six months at this point.
There are no concrete offers on the table just yet, however, the Manchester outfit have taken into account the Rossoneri’s preparation for the Coppa Italia and want to operate respectfully. In the report, it is suggested that City are ‘inclined’ to invest in him, even if it will cost more than €70 million – which would be a record fee.
It is unlikely that Reijnders will ask to leave it seems, however, with no players deemed ‘unsellable’ by the club. However, if the figures get lucrative, it would be a challenge to turn them down.
