Rodri's injury at Manchester City forced the team to consider a top midfielder for the following season. Thus, according to English media, City will spend $160 million to get a top midfielder for next season and there are strong candidates who can occupy this space: Nicolo Barella, Federico Valverde, Frenkie de Jong and Moises Caicedo, can be real options.
Let's start with, Federico Valverde has a contract until 2029 with Real Madrid, if they want to remove him from the team they will have to pay $120 million dollars, which is precisely the price at which it is valued. The player would be within the budget, now the player earns almost $18 million dollars a year at Real Madrid according to salary sports; The key for City would be to increase his salary, Rodri, who is the one he would replace, earns an average of $25 million dollars per season according to the same source.
The second player who meets these expectations is Nicolo Barella, who has a contract with Inter Milan until 2029: "Inter announces that it has reached an agreement to extend the contract of the player Nicolo Barella. The midfielder born in 1997 will be with The Nerazzurri until June 30, 2029", that is, they must also pay the value of their pass. The price of his transfer is $80 million dollars so there would be no problem for the city team to sign Barella, who is among the best midfielders in the world.
Frenkie de Jong is the third option, the FC Barcelona player has been looking to leave the team since last season, it was even almost a fact that he was going to play for Manchester United, however, in the end his transfer fell through. De Jong would be a good option for Guardiola and his value would not be a problem because he is valued at $80 million dollars according to Transfermarkt.
Moises Caicedo is the most expensive player in the history of the Premier League, Chelsea paid $145 million dollars for him. Now his price is lower, according to Transfermarkt he is worth $80 million dollars. In the recent Premier League he is the best player position by position, and precisely he has that marking and vision function to make deep passes. It is what Guardiola needs for the team, however, the problem may lie in the fact that Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca does not let him leave because he considers him a fundamental piece in the team. However, Chelsea have an overpopulation of players, so there is a possibility there.
