According to a report by French outlet Foot Mercato, Gabriel Sara is the subject of interest from Manchester City. The Premier League champions are keen on reinforcing their midfield unit in the summer transfer window and have set their sights on the Galatasaray midfielder. The Citizens have contacted the Brazilian midfielder’s entourage over a possible summer move.
Gabriel Sara has established himself as one of the best midfielders in the Turkish Super Lig since joining Galatasaray from Norwich City last summer. A native of Joinville, the South American midfielder spent his formative years in Brazil and graduated from the youth division at Sao Paulo FC.
The 25-year-old rose in prominence during his spell with Norwich City, spending two seasons with the Canaries. Meanwhile, Sara has enjoyed a productive campaign with Galatasaray this season, amassing two goals and eight assists in 41 appearances across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Sara’s exploits have not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several well-known clubs across Europe. Premier League outfits, in particular, have been keen on signing the Brazilian midfielder for a long time, with Manchester City among the prospective suitors vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.
Manchester City’s interest in Gabriel Sara is understandable. The Citizens are keen on returning to the summit of English football after a dreadful 2024/25 campaign. In addition, they will part ways with Kevin De Bruyne in the summer transfer window, and the Belgian international will leave a gaping hole in the midfield unit.
In addition, Bernardo Silva, Ilkay Gundogan, and Mateo Kovacic face an uncertain future at the Etihad. So, Manchester City can do with a new midfielder in the summer transfer window, with several candidates, including Ederson, on the club’s wishlist. However, Sara is also a viable target for Manchester City.
The Citizens have contacted the Brazilian midfielder’s representatives to discuss a possible move in the summer transfer window. With the move in its infancy, it will be interesting to see if the 25-year-old arrives at the Etihad in the coming months.
