Man City switch newest can be music to the ears of Arsenal and Liverpool

If a transfer for Gvardiol is full it might be City’s second switch of the summer season following midfielder Mateo Kovacic. The signing would even be a transparent message of intent by the treble winners boosting their defence with the Croatian sitting alongside Ruben Dias, John Stones and Nathan Ake and Kyle Walker.

Sky Sports News journalist Kaveh Solhekol additionally supported the idea {that a} transfer is much from full. He stated: “There have been some reports that a deal has almost been agreed and is very, very close. This morning I’ve been speaking to some of my colleagues at Sky Germany and they have very good contacts at his club, RB Leipzig. They are saying that as far as Leipzig are concerned, a deal is not close.”
