Manchester City is close to signing a £50 million defender, summer window signing plan surfaces

Manchester City's signing plan in the summer transfer window has gradually become clear, especially in the introduction of Wolves defender Renne Ait Nuri.

Manchester City is actively strengthening the left-back position. According to the Guardian, Wolves hope to get £50 million by selling the 23-year-old left-back. Ait Nuri has only one year left on the Wolves' contract. In the just-concluded season, he played 36 games for the Wolves, contributing 4 goals and 7 assists, and his offensive ability left a deep impression. Given that Wolves are willing to sell core players when they receive a suitable offer, like Mattus Cunia's previous transfer to Manchester United for £62.5 million, Ait Nuri's future has attracted much attention.

Manchester City coach Guardiola urgently needs to add the left back as Guvadior and Nico O'Reilly came to the position last season. In addition to his interest in Ait Nuri, Manchester City is also visiting Bournemouth's Milos Kerkz, but will face Liverpool's competition.

According to the Telegraph, Manchester City sports director Hugo Viana's focus this summer's signings include two midfielders, a left back and a right back. Manchester City also targeted Tijani Reindez, Rennes Sherkey and Morgan Gibbs-White. However, to sign the three players, Manchester City is expected to pay at least £150 million.

In addition, Manchester City is preparing to offer midfielder Rodri a contract extension with a significant salary increase in order to retain the Spanish international for a long time. If Rodri agrees to renew his contract for two years, his weekly salary will be increased from the current £200,000 to more than £300,000.
