Manchester City has been active in transfer deals with various big clubs in Europe, involving both incoming and outgoing players. The club has seen significant movement of players on loans, free transfers, and permanent deals for substantial transfer fees. Players like Ilkay Gundogan, Riyad Mahrez, and Raheem Sterling have been involved in recent outgoing deals. Joao Cancelo, who joined City for £60m in 2019, is now being targeted by Juventus for a potential move.
Cancelo, who has made 154 appearances for City, spent last season on loan at Barcelona and is reportedly not in Guardiola’s plans for the future. Juventus have made contact regarding a move for the defender, and while no official offer has been made, discussions have taken place.
