Manchester City is gearing up for a potential showdown with Real Madrid in the pursuit of Real Sociedad’s talented forward, Takefusa Kubo, affectionately dubbed the “Japanese Messi.”

As Pep Guardiola prepares to bolster his squad in the upcoming summer transfer window, Manchester City has already laid the groundwork for securing the promising City Football Group prodigy, Savio, for the 2024/25 season. The treble-winners are also eyeing other notable targets, including Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich, and forwards Lucas Paqueta, Jamal Musiala, and Michael Olise, amidst potential first-team departures.

Amidst these transfer speculations, there’s chatter surrounding the possible exit of Bernardo Silva, fueled by a reported £50 million release clause in his contract extension, while Kalvin Phillips’ permanent departure from the Etihad Stadium seems imminent.
