Another Algerian star close to Manchester City
Manchester City is the club most likely to sign Maghnes Akliouche
The battle for Maghnes Akliouche’s signature this summer has taken an interesting turn. While Bayer Leverkusen initially showed strong interest in the Franco-Algerian winger, it now appears Manchester City has surged ahead in the pursuit.
According to reports from Florian Plettenberg, the Premier League champions have emerged as the frontrunners to secure the AS Monaco star. Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen seems hesitant to meet Monaco’s valuation, which they consider too steep, potentially pushing them out of contention.
As the transfer saga unfolds, all eyes are on City, who appear determined to strengthen their squad with the talented right-winger. The coming weeks could be decisive in determining where Akliouche’s future lies.
The great skill that the player possesses and the amazing technical versatility at this young age will be a great addition to any team he moves to, and moving to a team coached by a man like Pep Guardiola, who has a history of developing talent, will be an irreplaceable step in the player’s career and he will benefit from it greatly, even if this move is to Manchester.
