The most expensive defender in the history of football intends to make the Manchester City him Josko Guardiol!
The “citizens” are very close to an agreement with the Leipzig for the Croatian with an amount of 120 million euros, although nothing is certain about the final amount of the deal and developments on the matter are expected in the coming days, if not hours for the 23-year-old stopper.
“Guardiol and his representatives have expressed his desire to go to Manchester City. It will end up in the hands of Pep and the amount will make him the most expensive defender in history. The deal may take a few more days to complete“, the sporting director of the Red Bull team said on the matter, Max Eberle.
The Leipzig player performed excellently World Cup – with the exception of scoring against Lionel Messi in the semi-final – and with the “bulls” shirt, he made 41 appearances in all competitions with three goals, while also winning the German Cup.
Let’s remember that the first place in terms of the sums spent on defense is still held by Harry Maguiresold in August 2019 by Leicester to Manchester United against 87 million euros.
