#1 Manchester madness
Yes, we have this. We will always have this. And quite coincidentally, both of these clubs have been linked with defenders today.
Trending
According to Marca, Borussia Dortmund central defender Marc Bartra could be sold by the Germans with three clubs interested in him: Juventus, Manchester City and Manchester United. The defender came to Germany from Barcelona but has seemingly fallen down in the pecking order.
Meanwhile, The Guardian believe that Aymeric Laporte is set to join Manchester City for £57 million, with the transfer being finalized next week. The defender was removed from the squad against Eibar, which indicates that a deal could be close.
Finally, Manchester Evening News think that Man City accept Shakhtar’s stand of not selling midfielder Fred this winter, but will want to confirm the deal for the summer.
