Some of the biggest teams in the Premier League are keen to strengthen their midfield this summer by signing a player who can play multiple roles. Because of all this, Multanis is now attracting the attention of Pep Guardiola at Man City. They have already finalised the deal to sign the Dutchman from AC Milan in the summer. Man City are set to pay €70 million, including bonuses, to acquire the former AZ Alkmaar midfielder, only the finishing touches on the paperwork are needed. According to Orazio Accomando, Man City have Tijjani Reijnders in their sights.

Why Does Man City Need To Sign A Midfielder

Because of the team’s rebuilding plans, Manchester City is now seeking a new midfielder for the 2025/26 season. Because Kevin De Bruyne is leaving and the status of Ilkay Gundogan, Bernardo Silva and Mateo Kovacic is unknown, City could face losing a big part of their midfield. Without a trophy last year, the club wants to return to dominance in their domestic league and compete strongly for the UEFA Champions League. It is important to have a powerful midfield so that the midfielders push up the field.

What Made Man City Shortlist Tijjani Reijnders

Man City is likely to be intrested in Tijjani Reijnders because of his impressive progress at AC Milan since transferring from AZ Alkmaar last July. The Dutch midfielder is now one of the best at keeping a consistent high standard, combining skills, stamina and forward thinking. Over 54 matches during the 2024/25 season, Reijnders helped create 20 goals as he scored 15 and gave five assists. Because of his agility, goal-scoring skills and talent, he is a natural match for Pep Guardiola’s style. If City want a new midfielder, Reijnders is one of their main prospects.
