Josko Gvardiol: Manchester City agree £77m fee with RB Leipzig for defender

Manchester City have agreed a 90m euro fee (£77m) with RB Leipzig for Croatia defender Josko Gvardiol.

The deal does not include add-ons, meaning the £80m Manchester United paid Leicester City for Harry Maguire in 2019 remains the British record for a defender.

The 21-year-old has been a key player for Leipzig, playing 87 games since signing from Dynamo Zagreb in 2021.

It is expected he will fly to England for a medical later this week

More to come.
