While they paid 60 million for Haaland, what Manchester City will pay for Kovacic

Manchester City has completed a great season where they won practically everything. The English team led by Pep Guardiola won the most important titles last season and now, they do not want to give up in the next season, taking into account that they will have to deal with the departure of some elements that are now looking for new challenges in their careers.

One of the main reasons why Pep Guardiola's Manchester City has dominated in a big way is precisely because they have one of the best midfielders in Europe. For this reason, they are now looking to enhance it even more and are close to finalizing the arrival of a talented player such as Mateo Kovacic, currently playing for Chelsea FC and who is very close to signing for the Etihad Stadium team.

The Croatian player, with a past at Real Madrid, has not had the best of performances last season with Chelsea FC. The uncertainty in Pochettino's project has made the player seriously consider leaving London and now, the interest of Manchester City gives him an option certainly not to be rejected. Therefore, it is surprising the amount that the club is willing to offer for the former Real Madrid player.
