Manchester City is reportedly interested in signing Joshua Kimmich this summer, with Pep Guardiola eyeing him as a potential reinforcement for the midfield. Kimmich, who plays for Bayern Munich, has only one year left on his contract and is being pursued by multiple clubs including Arsenal, Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Barcelona. The 29-year-old may be looking to start a new chapter in his career after spending several years at Bayern Munich.

Despite Manchester City’s interest in Kimmich, a report from Spain suggests that the player is currently ‘waiting’ for an offer from Barcelona, with the intention of potentially joining the club. Kimmich is attracted to the idea of playing for Barcelona under the guidance of Xavi, who is a legendary former midfielder. City may need to act swiftly if they want to sign Kimmich, as his preference seems to be leaning towards a move to Barcelona at the moment.

Kimmich’s versatility as a player, being able to play in multiple positions including as a holding midfielder or right-back, makes him an attractive target for Manchester City. While there have been discussions about other potential signings such as Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United, Kimmich presents a more cost-effective option for City. It remains to be seen whether Barcelona will present a suitable offer for Kimmich, but City should be prepared to make a move for the talented player if the opportunity arises.
