“Manchester City” is very seriously strengthening their defensive line.
Fabrizio Romano reports on an agreement between “Manchester City” and “RB Leipzig” teams regarding the transfer of Josko Gvardiol.
The 21-year-old center-back successfully passed the first part of his medical examination, adds F. Romano.
However, the clubs have not yet announced the agreed sum. It is suspected that this could be a record amount for a defender.
In the ranks of “Manchester City,” J. Gvardiol will meet a familiar face from the Croatian national team - Mateo Kovacic, who is also a newcomer for the “citizens”.
