Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter which relays a report that claims the club have made Real Sociedad winger Mikel Oyarzabal a top target ahead of next summer’s window.
The 24-year-old has risen through the youth ranks at Sociedad and enjoyed a stellar 2020-21 campaign, registering 11 goals and eight assists in 33 La Liga matches.
City may have spent big on Jack Grealish this summer, but remain keen on attacking talent with a move for Oyarzabal now anticipated.
According to Eurosport, Mikel Oyarzabal has become a key target for Manchester City, as the Premier League champions could attempt to sign him next summer.
The report adds that the Citizens are unlikely to reignite their pursuit of Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane, but Bernardo Silva’s possible exit will open up space for more attacking acquisitions.
Oyarzabal already boasts four goals from four La Liga games this season and impressed with Spain at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, banking three goals and two assists en route to the silver medal.
The report was shared on Twitter by City Chief, and it attracted plenty of attention from the club’s supporters, who took to the social media platform to share their thoughts and opinions.
