Manchester City is aiming to recruit Ademola Lukman. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola believes the offense needs to be strengthened.
England's The Hard Taskle reported on the 22nd (Korea time) "There are rumors that Manchester City is preparing an astronomical 100 million euros (about 163 billion won) offer to recruit Atalanta (Italy) Ademola Lukman in the January transfer market."
Earlier, Spain's Pichahes announced that Manchester City were willing to pay about 100 million euros to recruit Lukman. This could mean that Pep Guardiola has marked Lukman as a key card in strengthening winter transfer market attack options.
Lukman was very likely to leave the transfer window atalanta last summer and Inter Milan seemed the likely destination. However, during the negotiations, Atalanta stubbornly refused to sign Lukman, and Inter Milan gave up the offer.
Atalanta is likely to sell Lukman when the January transfer window opens. This is because a number of clubs are expected to show interest. Tottenham also reviewed Lukman as an alternative option when seeking to recruit Savinho in the past, but has since given up its approach.

Manchester City are a new club interested in Lukman this time. Pep Guardiola wants to bring an experienced striker to the winter transfer window. Some say Guardiola believes that the striker is still lacking. They say they have complaints about bench power this season.
"In preparation for a long and challenging season, Manchester City are expected to actively consider recruiting new strikers," The Hardtackle said. "It is a surprising offer considering Atalanta's demand in the summer is half of €100 million."
However, there is a story that Manchester City is aiming for Real Madrid's Hodrigo in addition to Lukman. Bradley Barcola of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is also said to be on the list.
Media reports "Manchester City are unlikely to actually pay €100m for Lucman, but it remains open to attempting a formal approach to Atalanta in January," he said.
