BREAKING NEWS: Manchester City Pep Guardiola set to announce brilliant signing imminently after ‘medical completed’. Manchester City have used the earlier-than-usual transfer window to their advantage, with Pep Guardiola’s side set to sign one of Serie A’s best midfielders, with medical tests now done
Manchester City have wasted no time flexing their transfer muscle this summer — and now, a blockbuster signing is on the verge of being announced. In a move that has sent shockwaves through both the Premier League and Serie A, Pep Guardiola is set to welcome one of Italy’s standout midfielders to the Etihad, with medical tests now officially completed.
📍 Early Business for the Champions
With the transfer window opening earlier than usual this year, City have moved swiftly to strengthen their midfield ahead of another title defence. Reports indicate the deal is all but done, with an official announcement from Guardiola expected within the next 24 hours.
Speaking at his pre-season press conference earlier today, the City boss was in typically cryptic mood when asked about the imminent signing:
> “We are working on a few things, and yes — there is a player who has completed his medical. He’s someone with great quality, from a very strong league, and will bring something different to our midfield. Hopefully, if everything finalises, the club will announce it very soon.”
🎯 One of Serie A’s Finest
While Guardiola stopped short of naming the player, multiple sources in England and Italy have suggested it’s a midfielder who has been one of Serie A’s most consistent and creative performers over the past two seasons. City have reportedly beaten off competition from several European heavyweights to seal the deal.
The player’s arrival is seen as a crucial addition, particularly following questions about City’s midfield depth after the departure of Kalvin Phillips and ongoing uncertainty around Kevin De Bruyne’s long-term future.
👀 Guardiola Hints at More Business
Guardiola also hinted that this signing might just be the start for City this summer:
> “We always look to improve where we can. It’s a long season ahead with many competitions. The club knows what we need, and we’ll see what’s possible in the next weeks.”
📢 Official Announcement Incoming
Fans won’t have to wait long, with the club expected to confirm the signing imminently. The player is likely to join up with his new teammates before City jet off for their pre-season tour next month.
📝 Conclusion
This early move signals City’s intent to stay ahead of the curve, and with Pep Guardiola masterminding another reshuffle of his already elite squad, the Premier League champions look determined to remain the team to beat heading into the new campaign.
