  It's been confirmed just how close Gabriel Jesus is to leaving Arsenal and where he might be headed.

With Kyle Walker's future at the Etihad Stadium uncertain, City have been actively searching for a top-level full-back to bolster their squad. 24-year-old Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso has emerged as a prime target for the Premier League champions.

Cambiaso has impressed in Turin with his versatility, capable of playing on both the right and left flanks. His ability to adapt to different tactical systems makes him an attractive option for Guardiola's possession-based style of play. The Italian's performances have also caught the attention of other European giants, including Real Madrid.

However, Juventus are reluctant to part ways with such a promising young talent. Cambiaso recently signed a contract extension until 2029, signaling the club's long-term commitment to him. Manchester City may face a challenging task in convincing Juventus to sell, but they are expected to make a substantial offer to tempt the Italian giants.

While Cambiaso is the primary target, City are also monitoring other full-backs such as Jeremie Frimpong and Rayan Aït-Nouri. However, the Juventus defender's profile aligns most closely with Guardiola's vision for the squad.

As the summer transfer window approaches, it will be interesting to see if Manchester City can successfully secure the signing of Andrea Cambiaso. The Italian's arrival would undoubtedly strengthen Guardiola's squad and provide the team with added depth and versatility in the full-back positions.
