Switching from Harry Kane, Manchester City Are Eyeing AC Milan’s Young Players

DBasia.news – Manchester City seems to have forgotten the hope of getting the services of Harry Kane. The Citizens now have a new target to be brought in next summer.

Kane is Manchester City’s main target ahead of the 2021-2022 season. He is prepared to replace Sergio Aguero whose contract expires.

But drama colored Kane’s transfer saga. Tottenham Hotspur as the club owner is reluctant to sell at any price.

Even though Kane had asked permission to leave. Manchester City have also prepared funds of more than 100 million pounds.

In the end, Kane chose to stay at Tottenham. Manchester City also failed to land a new bomber until the transfer window closed.

Initially Manchester City intended to return to pursue Kane next year. But the appointment of Antonio Conte as Tottenham manager will make that even more difficult.

Therefore Manchester City chose to divert the shot. According to Calciomercato reports, Pep Guardiola is interested in Rafael Leao.

Leao wasn’t really a spearhead. He mostly operates as a wing striker.

But this is what makes Guardiola interested in Leao. He seemed to want to continue the scheme of the game without a pure attacker that he was implementing.

So far the scheme has been quite successful. Manchester City continued to look sharp as Guardiola fielded players such as Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez, and Gabriel Jesus as spearheads.

This tactic is very likely to continue to be developed by Guardiola. And the presence of Leao who was still very easy could perfect that.

Manchester City should have no trouble getting Leao. The large funds that were prepared were too difficult for Milan to refuse.

The arrival of Leao could also anticipate the departure of Sterling. The England national team winger is rumored to be leaving Manchester City next winter.
