Manchester City have expressed interest in signing Lazio goalkeeper Christos Mandas ahead of the summer transfer window. The 22-year-old, who has been impressive in recent games as the second-choice keeper for Lazio, has caught the attention of Premier League clubs. While initially thought to be a target for Manchester United, it is now reported that Manchester City have made contact with Mandas’ agents to secure his services.
Despite previous plans to loan Mandas out for development, Lazio is now considering offering him a new contract until 2029 to keep him at the club. The Greek goalkeeper has made a big impression in the absence of Ivan Provedel, keeping three clean sheets in six games. Manchester City, looking to add depth to their goalkeeping squad, are keen on bringing Mandas in as a backup for Ederson, with Stefan Ortega set to depart.
Mandas faces a significant decision in his career, weighing the potential move to Manchester City against staying at Lazio and competing for a first-team spot. The young goalkeeper will need to consider how a move to City will impact his career progression and playing time. With offers on the table from both clubs, Mandas will need to carefully evaluate his options before making a decision on his future.
