Manchester City supporters received potentially positive news on one of the club’s summer transfer targets.
As City continue to assemble a midfield shortlist ahead of the summer transfer window, Joshua Kimmich of Bayern Munich and Germany is of interest.
With Kalvin Phillips unlikely to return from his loan move to West Ham United and Bernardo Silva uncertain about his Etihad future, City Football Academy authorities may have to go elsewhere.
Manchester City may have to turn off good deals to find a deal in the current market since practical solutions at a realistic price are hard to find.
Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich is expected to come to their attention due to his unresolved contract predicament at the Allianz Arena and the recent development on his thoughts on the Etihad club.
Manchester City insider ‘Tolmie’s Hairdoo’ on X says Joshua Kimmich ‘only wants to join’ Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City this summer.
It is also claimed that if his current club Bayern Munich does not present him with ‘good’ new contractual terms and a ‘clear plan on and off the field’, the versatile Germany international is’ready’ to join Guardiola’s team.
Pep Guardiola and Joshua Kimmich are familiar from their time working together at Bayern Munich, when Guardiola taught the player in a variety of positions including full-back, central defense, and midfield.
Some at the Etihad have compared Pep Guardiola’s extraordinary growth of Joshua Kimmich to the continued coaching of Rico Lewis at Manchester City, who now plays offensive midfield after initially breaking into the first team as a full-back and defensive midfielder.
