Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala is also a target for Man City, with the young German being considered one of the most exciting players currently, boasting impressive stats for goals and assists. This potential move could impact Jack Grealish’s future role in the team.

According to Football Transfers, Manchester City are also in the running to sign Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite at the end of the season.
Rivals Manchester United are heavily interested in Branthwaite, while Newcastle United are also in the mix to secure his services.
Despite having a strong defensive lineup, City see potential in Branthwaite as a long-term addition with a high ceiling of growth.
At just 21 years old, Branthwaite has shown promise at Everton, standing out with impressive defensive stats and receiving praise from football pundits.
He was initially on course to miss the Arsenal game…
With his potential and working under Guardiola, Branthwaite could develop into a top centre-back in the league, making a move to Manchester City an attractive prospect considering Everton’s current struggles.
