Manchester City are set to hold a fresh round of talks with a view to signing Joško Gvardiol, according to reports.
Transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that the Premier League champions have scheduled a new round of talks, with the aim of progressing a deal for the Croatia international. City's 'initial approach' saw a €75million fee plus add-ons rejected, with the Bundesliga side said to be after a massive €100m.
That would make the 21-year-old the most expensive defender in the world. He has made over 130 senior appearances in his career and played 41 games for Leipzig last season. Gvardiol's current contract runs until 2027 and has been linked with a move to the treble winners throughout the summer.
