Man City is in the market for new offensive midfielders this summer, but finds it difficult to sign any of its targets. And that trend could be trying to continue, despite the appearance of a great opportunity with Rayan Cherki.
The final tickets are still available for the Champions League Finals!
Cherki has been one of Europe’s most talked about playmakers for the past 12 months, and the 21-year-old was amazed by Lyon. Furthermore, the financial difficulties on the Ligue 1 side mean that he will be available in the market at a low price of £20 million.
This is a bargain for Man City, and this week they have been preparing to make the summer move for Cherki. However, there is doubt as to whether the deal can be made despite it being more than Lyon’s ability to pay the asking price set.
Rayan Cherki has reservations for Man City Move
That’s because football insiders reported that they have doubts about Cherki joining Man City this summer. French Youth International recognizes that he will become a squad player only if he moves to Etihad.
Cherki is eager to play a prominent role in his next club, and Man City already has a wealth of talent in the attacking area, allowing him to struggle to get started regularly. So this seems to have supported the potential for Man United. Man United maintains the tab ahead of the potential summer pursuits.
It will be very interesting to see where Cherki ends this summer. He is a top talent and playing an important role in his next club assures him that he continues to strive to reach his potential.
