The transfer market in English football is heating up again. Manchester City are seriously interested in Brentford defender Michael Kayode. This was reported by Sport, citing reliable sources.
It is reported that the 21-year-old's consistent and growing performance this season has impressed the City management. In particular, he stands out as one of the leaders in terms of taking shots in the Premier League, which clearly demonstrates his versatility and activity on the field.
It is noted that bringing Kayode to the team has become one of the priority transfer goals for Manchester City. Interestingly, this interest does not lose its relevance even despite the uncertainty surrounding the future of head coach Josep Guardiola.
According to experts, if Guardiola stays in the team, the transfer will be even more likely to happen. Because the Spanish coach has proven himself many times in developing young and promising players.
Earlier, there were reports that Manchester United and Newcastle were also seriously competing for the talented defender. So, the competition for Kayode is expected to be quite strong.
Brentford, on the other hand, values the player at around 50 million pounds sterling (around 57.5 million euros). According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is 27 million euros.
One thing is certain: interest in the young defender is growing every day and it is possible that there will be big moves around Kayode in the upcoming transfer window.
