Arsenal Transfer News: Manchester City will have to rival the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea in a bid to secure a transfer with AC Milan for the Portuguese star.
Arsenal Transfer News: Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City have been the most dominant team in the English Premier League for the last six seasons. They have won four titles in the last six seasons, which goes to show how incredible they have been in the toughest competition. Pep Guardiola’s side are still alive in the ongoing Premier League campaign.
As things stand, Manchester City are second on the Premier League table. In fact, they won two Premier League titles in the last two seasons and are aiming to make a hat-trick of titles for the first time in history. However, it won’t be that easy as the Gunners are on top of the table with a five-point gap.
With 12 more games to be played, it is just a matter of consistency and a winning mentality to surge ahead and win the title. It’s Arsenal’s title to lose. The Gunners have been impeccable in terms of their attacking and defensive approach to the game. Having played 26 games, they collected 63 points (won 20, drew 3, lost 3).
Meanwhile, Manchester City are also looking pretty solid at the moment. They recently churned out a 2-0 win over Newcastle United at home. They will lock horns with Crystal Palace in the away Premier League fixture on March 11. Man City will start the game as favourites as they have maintained a superb record (5 wins, 2 draws) against the Eagles.

Meanwhile, the Serie A giants are still in talks with the Portuguese star over his deal. AC Milan’s sporting director Frederic Massara and technical director Paolo Maldini would be looking to speed up the talks such that they don’t lose their player to any other club. Meanwhile, the AC Milan winger himself stated recently that he does not like London in the first place and gave a valid explanation as well.
The attacker said, via A Bola: “I don’t like the weather there. I went shopping the first time I went to London.” Earlier, Arsenal legend Ian Wright also heaped praise on the youngster. “It’s how dynamic he was for Portugal at the World Cup. He played it in behind, he got past the defender and the composure to whip it into that far corner, beautiful,” Ian Wright said, via the Daily Mail.
