Manchester City Pep Guardiola set to announce brilliant signing imminently after ‘medical completed’
Manchester City is capitalizing on the earlier-than-usual transfer window to bolster its squad, with Pep Guardiola’s side reportedly set to sign one of Serie A’s top midfielders. According to sources, the club is on the cusp of securing Tijjani Reijnders, a highly skilled Dutch international, with medical tests already completed.
Reijnders: A Strategic Signing
Reijnders’ signing is a strategic move for Manchester City, given the impending departure of Kevin De Bruyne and the waning form of Ilkay Gundogan. The 26-year-old’s versatility and impressive form for AC Milan, where he notched 10 goals and five assists in 37 Serie A games in 2024/25, make him an attractive prospect for Guardiola’s side.
Transfer Details
The transfer fee for Reijnders is reportedly set at €57m + €14m, with potential bonuses up to €65m (£55m). With personal terms and medical tests already finalized, Manchester City is expected to officially announce the signing of Reijnders in the near future.
A Trio of Signings
Reijnders won’t be the only new face at Manchester City, as the club is also close to securing Wolves left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri in a deal worth £36.3m (€43m, $49.1m). Furthermore, negotiations are advancing for a potential deal worth around £30m (€35.6m, $40.6m) for Lyon forward Rayan Cherki, who wowed fans with a fantastic goal for France against Spain in the Nations League semi-final. These signings, expected to be completed before June 10 ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup, would represent a significant investment of approximately £120m for the club [20].
