Manchester City’s interest in midfielder Lucas Paqueta has been confirmed, with the club looking for a replacement amid the potential departure of Bernardo Silva and Kevin De Bruyne’s age. Despite interest from Barcelona, City has been unable to secure a move for Paqueta, leading them to consider a transfer from West Ham.
Paqueta has expressed happiness at West Ham, where he is currently playing and focusing on finishing the season before making any decisions about his future. Manchester City is expected to continue exploring other options, including players like Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United and Bayern Munich’s Jamal Musiala and Joshua Kimmich. The club is prepared for a substantial financial commitment in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Football Association is also conducting an investigation into gambling allegations, which may impact City’s move for Paqueta from West Ham. The midfielder’s contentment at his current club and the uncertainty surrounding the investigation could influence Manchester City’s decision-making process as they plan for the upcoming transfer window in 2024.
