Reports say Manchester City is currently signing a contract with the “extraordinary” Real Madrid player, with an opening offer of £17 million underway.
Summer reconstruction of urban planning
Pep Guardiola has been tasked with replacing legendary Man City players in the past, with the manager being largely successful, and Ehling Haaland’s exploits come to replace Sergio Aguero as a illustrious example.
But finding a heir to Kevin de Bruin this summer may be the most difficult job for a manager. The 33-year-old will finish a decade-long stint at Etihad Stadium at the end of the campaign.
Not only is the manager being tasked with replacing De Bruyne, but he may have to enter the new right-back market, given that Kyle Walker was loaned out to AC Milan in January.

City is looking to bolster its defense this summer, but now has new targets in mind.
Walker’s time in Manchester may be coming to an end, and the same applies to longtime goalkeeper Adason. Sky Blues is actively looking for alternatives and discussed a deal with FC Porto’s Diogo Costa.
According to a report from Spain, Man City has also been contacted about a contract with Real Madrid goalkeeper Andri Irunin (via sports witness), who may move this summer.
City is keen to bring goalkeepers comfortably in getting the ball, and Luinn fits the bill. That is, they are approaching Ukrainian aides, and reports from elsewhere say that an offer of 20 million euros (£17 million) is being prepared.
Bayern Munich is also interested in signing the 26-year-old, so there may be competition for his signature, but the report shows that goalkeepers may be keen on moving into the Premier League.
Replacing the Chiboat Courtois with the Starting XI will always be a difficult task, but the 6-foot-3 Colossus was impressed when given the opportunity.
Ukrainian International was particularly impressive at Etihad Stadium in the second round of the quarterfinals, achieving a 9.7 sofa score rating to keep Guardiola’s side at 6 saves from the box.
The towering goalkeeper has been praised as Nico Canot of “extraordinary” CBS Sports, and his performance in Madrid shows that he deserves a regular starter for top clubs, rather than playing a second fiddle to Courtois.
So Luin could be a great signing for City this summer, and while it would be sad if Ederson leaves the club given the major role the Brazilian played in Guardiola’s success, it’s exciting news that they are making moves to secure his signature.
