"Man City" aims to overtake "Liverpool" in the battle for G.Xhaka

Although there are still a few months left until the summer transfer window, "Man City" team is not wasting any time.

The English team, led by Josep Guardiola, is especially interested in Monchengladbach's "Borussia" midfielder Granit Xhaka.

According to "Bild", the "City" club is willing to pay 50 million euros for the Swiss player.

The possibilities of the 23-year-old player moving to the "Premier" league in December were also discussed with the player's agent by "Liverpool" manager Jurgen Klopp, but now everything could be outweighed by the money from Manchester team.

Xhaka's contract with "Borussia" is valid until June 30, 2019, but from 2017 there is a clause in the contract allowing him to move to another club for 30 million euros, so it is believed that the Germans may take advantage of the generous offer from "Man City".

This season in the Bundesliga, Xhaka scored 3 goals in 16 matches.
