Manchester City have suffered a slump this season, the biggest reason being the late midfield change and Rodri's major injury. Pep Guardiola is well aware of this and is planning to strengthen his midfield in the summer window.
According to the latest news from the Italian media "Roma Sport", Manchester City will offer AC Milan's 26-year-old Dutch midfielder Reinders for a transfer fee of 55 million euros, but Milan has a price tag of more than 70 million euros.
According to Roti, Manchester City have been keeping an eye on Reinders and have sent scouts to visit the site several times, and Manchester City's top brass have always believed that Reinders is a player who can help Manchester City, and the Blue Moon will issue the first offer in the near future, around 55 million euros. But for Milan, Reinders is a very key player, and will only sell Reinders if they receive a particularly satisfactory offer, at least an offer of more than 70 million euros. Pep Guardiola has already seen Reinders as De Bruyne's successor and will certainly add if City's offer doesn't work out once.
Reinders joined AC Milan from AZ Alkmaar for a transfer fee of €20.5 million in the summer window of 2023 and quickly became the heart of Milan's midfield, scoring 19 goals and nine assists in 102 games in all competitions in Milan's career, and winning the 2024 Italian Super Cup.
The 26-year-old Reinders, a 1.85-meter-tall, right-footed player who can play in midfield, midfielder and midfielder, has a contract with Milan until 2030 (which has just been renewed), and is valued at 50 million euros. Reinders has made 52 appearances for Milan in all competitions so far this season, starting 51 of them, contributing 15 goals and four assists.
