Manchester City a few days ago thought they might be able to secure the services of Lucas Paqueta. But a check from the Brazilian prevented him from doing so. Pep Guardiola will have another idea to compensate for Kevin De Bruyne’s injury.

Pep Guardiola suffered a major setback a few days ago with Kevin De Bruyne’s injury. The midfielder will be out for several months due to a hamstring injury. The Spaniard first thought of Lucas Paqueta (West Ham) as his replacement. The problem is that the Brazilian team is suspected of betting on matches in which it participated. Transfer failed.
according to information received daily Mail, Manchester City will have a new track to improve the effectiveness of their offensive animation. Pep Guardiola will have name-checked Eberechi Eze, who continues to develop under the Crystal Palace tunic. The Skyblues could shell out a hefty sum to bring the England international, while the Eagles have set a price of €80 million for him.
jeremy doku will pass his medical exam soon
Eberechi Eze recently extended his contract with Crystal Palace until June 2027. So this operation is not sure for civilians. Signed in August 2020 for €18 million, the London native has scored 15 goals and provided 11 assists in 95 appearances for Crystal Palace. He had previously notably defended the colors of Queens Park Rangers (112 games, 20 goals and 13 assists).
As a reminder, Manchester City are also on the trail of Jeremy Doku, who should be let go to Stade Rennais for €60 million. The 21-year-old is expected to undergo a medical in the coming days and sign a long-term contract with the Mancunian side. The Briton is therefore set to realize a great added value when they invest €26 million to bring him in in 2020.
This will change a lot in the city in the days to come…
