Manchester City are interested in signing Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde.
The Uruguay international has been linked with a move away from the Spanish club, and it will be interesting to see if the Premier League side are able to strike a deal.
Valverde has also been linked with a move to Chelsea or Manchester United.
Will Federico Valverde sign Erling Haaland?
Real Madrid are reportedly interested in signing Erling Haaland from the Premier League club, but it is likely to cost a significant amount of money. Fichajes said the Spanish team could consider hiring Valverde as part of a deal to reduce the asking price. It remains to be seen whether the two clubs will be able to negotiate a mutually beneficial contract.
Manchester City need more quality in the middle of the park and the South American would be a great addition. He has proven to be a complete midfielder and has the qualities to excel in the Premier League. He can help Manchester City improve and control the game. Carlo Ancelotti once called him “the most complete player in football”.
Man City must keep Haaland
On the other hand, Haaland is a key player for Manchester City and his departure would be a blow to Manchester City. It will be interesting to see if they agree to let their best striker leave the club to improve their midfield. He could be a great addition for Real Madrid. They are in dire need of a reliable number nine and the Norwegian could fill that void.
It remains to be seen how the situation will develop in the coming weeks.
Manchester City need to improve their midfield unit, but they can’t afford to let their best players leave. It will be very difficult for them to replace the Norwegian striker and they must keep him at the club at all costs.
