Guardiola desires a defender in the upcoming transfer window, and Manchester City has “taken action” for a summer signing.
Turkey rumours that Manchester City’s Guardiola is interested in Ferdi Kadıoğlu, defender for Fenerbahce.
Today, Fotomac reports that Pep Guardiola’s team has “acted” to secure the 24-year-old’s signing.
In addition to Manchester City, Borussia Dortmund expressed interest in the defender, who is reportedly having an excellent season at Fenerbahce.
It is estimated that Kadıoğlu has a market value of €20 million, and the Turkish government has a contract protecting him through 2028.
Although there are no specifics on how Manchester City is proceeding with the signing, FotoMac claims that Pep Guardiola wants to see the defender in his squad “in the new season.”
In 2019, Kadıoğlu joined Fenerbahce after leaving the Dutch team NEC Nijmegen. He has made 33 appearances for the Istanbul team this season and has established himself as one of the team’s key players.
He is not surprised by the Premier League’s interest, as Arsenal was also mentioned a few months ago.
When the summer transfer window heats up, we’ll discover who actually made a bid for his transfer.
