Gvardiol remains City's summer transfer priority
Josko Gvardiol remains the priority for Manchester City in the summer transfer window as they work to close a deal.
Pep Guardiola is looking to add the 21-year-old defender to his squad for the new season after finding success with four centre-backs across his backline. City currently have nine senior defenders on their books in the senior squad, but Joao Cancelo, Aymeric Laporte and Kyle Walker could leave while 18-year-old Rico Lewis is still learning.
RB Leipzig want £85m for Croatian star Gvardiol plus additional performance-related payments and City are not yet ready to meet that valuation despite advanced talks, but all parties still expect a deal can be done. Securing Gvardiol remains the biggest piece of business for City in the market this summer as they look to build on their Treble-winning campaign.
