• First offer: €50 million;

• Second offer: €60 million.

However, Manchester City officials immediately rejected both offers. The English club’s management has stated that it intends to let the Ballon d’Or winner leave only for a fee of at least €80 million Therefore, the Catalan club is increasing its financial offer and working on new terms.

The experienced midfielder recorded the following statistics forManchester City in the recently concluded 2025/26 season:

• English Premier League: 21 appearances and 1 goal;
