‘He should be our main target’ – Fans react as Man City Lead the race for Bundesliga star

Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays reports that the Citizens are leading the race to sign Right Back Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano.

City’s need for a centre-half is greater, with Pep Guardiola and the hierarchy having made the position a priority this summer, after the problems encountered in the wake of Vincent Kompany’s retirement this summer.

Manchester City have been heavily linked with a move for Upamecano, Milan Skriniar and Kalidou Koulibaly in recent weeks, as Pep Guardiola looks to sign a new centre-back at the end of the season.

According to an update courtesy of French media outlet le10sport, Manchester City are currently leading the pack to sign Dayot Upamecano – with the Sky Blues now looking to upgrade a weakened defence ahead of next season’s title challenge.

Upamecano has just one year remaining on his contract at Leipzig, meaning that despite having a £40.5 million release clause in his current contract, he could be available for as little as £35 million.
