Multiple media outlets including Britain 'Sky Sports' reported on the 7th (Korea time) that Manchester City agreed to transfer up to 36.3 million pounds (about 63 billion won) with Wolverhampton, including a bonus of 31 million pounds (about 54 billion won) to bring Ait Nuri. Now Ait Noori is left with only negotiations on personal terms and medical tests. Manchester City plans to complete the contract before 7 p.m. local time on Tuesday to include Ait Nuri in the Club World Cup roster.
Algeria international defender Ait Noori moved to Wolverhampton from Ange, France in 2020. He played in a total of 157 games, scoring 12 goals and 19 assists. With the transfer, Angé will receive about 9.7 million pounds (about 17 billion won) under the 50% resale clause included in the past contract.
Asked about the transfer rumors at a press conference during the Algerian national team's call-up, Ait Nouri said, `Now we are focusing on the national team's game. Two games are the most important. However, when asked about Pep Guardiola, he indirectly hinted at the possibility of joining Manchester City in the future, saying, `Everyone knows that he is a great coach.'
Meanwhile, Manchester City has been pushing to strengthen its defense ahead of its participation in the Club World Cup, and Aitnuri is considered a player who is good at both side defense and attack development. When the deal is finalized, Manchester City will build a strong competitive system at left full-back with Rico Lewis and Nathan Ake.
