#2 Manchester City
There are very few players in world football who would turn down the opportunity to play under Pep Guardiola and it’s unlikely Verratti would be one of those players.
Manchester City have struggled to build a midfield partnership this season with Yaya Toure in and out of the team and Pablo Zabaleta even featuring in centre midfield on a couple of occasions. This means they will certainly be on the lookout for a central midfielder this summer.
Verratti is one of the best young centre midfielders in the world, and it’s likely Guardiola would be interested in signing the Italian. If Verratti was to consider making a move to the Premier League, Manchester City are one of the most exciting sides in the league. Guardiola would allow him a lot of freedom and this could convince him to make the switch.
Although City have struggled this season, Guardiola, with some new signings, could potentially win the Premier League next season. This, along with the Spaniard’s fantastic record in Europe, could see the Italian move to Manchester City in the summer transfer window.
