At Manchester City, they are already beginning to analyze the possible options that will arise next transfer market.Pep Guardiola has decided that one of the English team's objectives must be to strengthen the goalkeeping position. The more than likely departure of Ederson has led his club to evaluate all possible candidates who meet the Catalan coach's requirements.
Among the available options, several names have emerged, but there is one that stands out in particular. At 27 years old,this star is already one of the most important figures in Italian soccer, and Manchester City want him at all costs. Thus, Ederson would already have a replacement, and there will be a new star in the English club's goal.
A Goalkeeper of Interest
With experience in Europe,the goalkeeper who most attracts Pep Guardiola's attention at this point is Michele Di Gregorio, who has established himself in the Italian Serie A. His outstanding performances at Monza allowed him to make the leap to Juventus last season and he now shines as the goalkeeper for the Vecchia Signora. In his first year with Juventus, Di Gregorio has played 24 matches and kept his goal unbeaten in 11 of them, proving his reliability between the posts.
His performance has sparked the interest of several European clubs, butso far he has shown commitment to Juventus. In fact, Di Gregorio has already turned down significant offers, including an approach from Liverpool. His contract with the Turin team extends until 2029, making his departure not easy.
Juventus Won't Make It Easy
Despite Manchester City's interest,Juventus has no intention of parting with their starting goalkeeper. The Italian club considers him a key piece in their long-term project and doesn't contemplate negotiations unless an irresistible offer arrives.
City, meanwhile, has not yet made a formal move for Di Gregorio, but his name remains on the radar.With the uncertainty about Ederson's future, the English club could intensify their efforts next transfer market, although the operation will not be easy at all.
