Man City eye £40.5m-rated defender who’s been dribbled past less than Aymeric Laporte

According to Calciomercato, Manchester City are interested in Alessandro Bastoni and may have to battle a number of clubs for his signature. Despite signing Nathan Ake and Ruben Dias over the summer, Pep Guardiola is still looking to strengthen his backline.

Bastoni is a regular for Inter Milan and looks to have a bright future, but the Nerazzurri are looking to hand him a lucrative contract extension to keep him at the San Siro. CEO Giuseppe Marotta is unlikely to let an established first-team player leave the club, however, at least for cheap, so we’ll see where this story goes.
