According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Nico Gonzalez could be offered to Saudi Pro League clubs. Although the Spanish midfielder has done reasonably well, Manchester City are prepared to cash in on him and find an upgrade. It will be interesting to see where Gonzalez ends up.
Intermediaries are currently working to offer the Spaniard to Saudi Pro League clubs. It remains to be seen whether all parties can come to an agreement quickly as he stares at an uncertain future at Manchester City.
The technically-gifted midfielder could be a solid acquisition for Saudi Arabian clubs. The 23-year-old is entering the peak years of his career, and he will want to compete at the highest level. Playing for a top European club would be ideal for him at this stage, but he will have plenty of opportunities to move to Saudi Arabia in the future.
It remains to be seen whether the midfielder is open to moving to Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, Manchester City will look to offload him and raise a substantial amount from his departure. The Citizens failed to push for major trophies last season, and they are now desperate to bounce back strongly. They have already spent substantial amounts on new signings since the January transfer window and now seem intent on further improving the squad.
Manchester City have a talented squad and an ambitious project. Furthermore, they have one of the best managers of all time. Pep Guardiola has won trophies consistently, and he will look to guide Manchester City to a major trophy next season as well. Meanwhile, Gonzalez will be disappointed if Manchester City decide to cash in on him.
The Spaniard would have expected to establish himself as a player for the Premier League giants and win major trophies with them in the future. Manchester City are already lacking depth in the middle of the park, and if they decide to sell Gonzalez in the coming weeks, they might need to bring in multiple reinforcements in that area.
