Manchester City Fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays a report that claims the club have identified Atalanta’s Robin Gosens as a possible option at left-back.
The full-back spot in particular remains an issue throughout Pep Guardiola’s time at the club, with Benjamin Mendy failing to push his game on.
The French international has had his fair share of troubles with recurrent injuries coupled with poor form and is starting to turn into a liability for Pep Guardiola.
The use of Zinchenko and the recent form of Joao Cancelo may have provided yet another short-term solution, but a competent true left-back is needed at the club.
According to TuttoMercatoWeb as relayed by Sport Witness, City will listen to offers for Zinchenko and have identified Atalanta’s Robin Gosens as his possible successor.
However, the report adds that It is not clear if the Cityzens have approached the Serie A side or the player’s entourage.
The €28m-rated left-back, who have a year left on his Atalanta contract has nine goals and six assists in all competitions this season.
It remains to be seen what Man City do in the summer, but it’s clear the club need a new left back with neither Benjamin Mendy or Oleksandr Zinchenko completely convincing in recent seasons.
In reaction to the report shared on Twitter by City Xtra, Many man City fans have expressed their thoughts and opinions.
Ah yes, now we’re talking. Great player. Him and Zinny would be a great set of options.

If we get him it will be a huge jackpot. We can offload Mendy once we get him
