Romano: Manchester City is interested in Lyon midfielder Cherki, while considering Nottingham Forest s White

According to the well-known reporter Romano on May 27, Manchester City is interested in Lyon midfielder Cherki and has learned about the relevant contract terms of the players.

It is reported that Cherki and Gibbs White are currently the signing targets that Manchester City are considering.

The Daily Telegraph pointed out that Manchester City joined the bid for Lyon midfielder Cherki, and Guardiola is restructuring the lineup for next season. Cherki, 21, has confirmed his departure from Lyon this summer, which has sparked interest from Premier League clubs. Premier League teams generally believe that their contracts contain termination clauses of about £20 million to £25 million.

As the transaction cost of introducing Leverkusen player Wiltz is too high, Manchester City has withdrawn from the competition, and they are currently turning to Cherki, who is also an attacking midfielder. The French U21 international has performed well this season, contributing 12 goals and 20 assists. Earlier this month, he thanked Lyon teammates and staff and hinted that he would leave the team.

Some clubs that examine Cherki also need to evaluate whether their personality is suitable, and his on-court investment has always been considered a shortcoming. However, his huge potential has also attracted many teams, and the right coach may inspire his talent.

Fulham had previously offered Cherki, and Dortmund also intended to introduce him at the beginning of this season, but the negotiations eventually broke down. Premier League teams such as Liverpool and Chelsea have been linked with him, but the parties have not confirmed formal contact yet.
