Gvardiol remains City's summer transfer priority
Josko Gvardiol remains the priority for Manchester City in the summer transfer window as they work to close a deal.
Pep Guardiola is looking to add the 21-year-old defender to his squad for the new season after finding success with four centre-backs across his backline. City currently have nine senior defenders on their books in the senior squad, but Joao Cancelo, Aymeric Laporte and Kyle Walker could leave while 18-year-old Rico Lewis is still learning.
RB Leipzig want £85m for Croatian star Gvardiol plus additional performance-related payments and City are not yet ready to meet that valuation despite advanced talks, but all parties still expect a deal can be done. Securing Gvardiol remains the biggest piece of business for City in the market this summer as they look to build on their Treble-winning campaign.

Ederson reveals Treble pre-season prediction
Ederson is the latest Manchester City player to reveal he predicted winning the Champions League before the 2022/23 season even started.
City fended off a title challenge from Arsenal to win their third-straight Premier League and added the FA Cup by winning the final against local rivals Manchester United. The Blues followed it up with a nervy Champions League final win over Inter Milan in Istanbul to secure a first-ever European Cup.
Ederson was the hero late on in the final as he denied Romelu Lukaku from close range after Rodri's goal and punched Robin Gosens' goalbound header clear with the final touch of the game.
Speaking during a family holiday to the UAE, Ederson told the National how his emotional reaction at full-time in Istanbul was in part due to a prediction he made before the season even started that City would finally win the Champions League.
