In accordance with a number of stories, Manchester Metropolis have contacted FC Porto over a possible deal to signal Nico Gonzalez. Nonetheless, it appears the one approach to get a switch accomplished earlier than the winter switch window closes can be for the Premier League champions to set off the discharge clause within the midfielder’s contract, believed to be set at £50 million. As reported by the Telegraph, they aren’t ready to take action in the mean time and are hoping to cut back the value by way of negotiations.
Metropolis have already strengthened their squad this month, including Abdukodir Khusanov and Vitor Reis to their defence and strengthening their attacking part with Omar Marmoush. However they’re but to signal a midfielder, a quite urgent matter given the lengthy harm absence of Rodri and the shortage of type of the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva. Matheus Nunes has come nowhere near justifying the £55m spent on his providers in 2023 and he at the moment serves as an auxiliary right-back.
