Guardiola wants him, the huge amount that Manchester City would put for the new De Bruyne

Manchester City does not want its great continental success to be something in the short term. Pep Guardiola's team seeks to dominate Europe at will and to do so it is already moving its chips to strengthen the club in the best possible way for the future. This season, the arrivals of Gvardiol and Jeremy Doku were two strong bets for the following years. However, the club are now tasked with beginning to sound out new Kevin De Bruyne.

Pep Guardiola, City's strategist, has expressed his interest in Eze for some time, and it seems that his wish to have the young midfielder could come true in the next January transfer market. The Briton, whose contract with Crystal Palace runs until June 2025, recently rejected a renewal offer that sought to tie him to the club until 2027. This gesture has further fueled speculation about his future. If the transfer was completed, it would be a significant movement in the world of football and a quality reinforcement for Manchester City. Competition in the Premier League remains fierce.

Despite all the speculation, Eze is unlikely to leave Crystal Palace during the winter transfer window, according to Todo Fichajes. Fans will have to wait until the end of the season to find out his final destination, although Pep Guardiola could try to sign him again next summer.

Crystal Palace would have already rejected an offer from Man City

According to the Sunday Mirror, the Sky Blues received a negative response regarding the €70 million offer for this professional. Surely, a more than considerable monetary amount in order to shape Eze's landing in a project that wants to continue flying high. The reason was the following: The Eagles' claims skyrocketed above a whopping €90 million. However, it is not ruled out that the club will make a new attempt next summer. This is a player that Pep Guardiola really likes and who could actually be positioned as a possible replacement for De Bruyne.
