According to a report from Turkish outlet Fanatik, Man City’s bitter cross-town rivals Man United are contemplating a swoop for Juventus defender Merih Demiral – giving City a battle to land the defender who has been on Pep Guardiola’s radar since January.
Indeed, a past report from Sabah via Sport Witness claims the Sky Blues were ‘ready to offer‘ a cash sum for the player’s services until a long term knee injury effectively ended all January interest in bringing him to the Etihad.
