According to recent reports, Manchester City are making significant progress in their pursuit of AC Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders. The negotiations between the two clubs have reportedly reached an advanced stage.
Sky Sport Italia`s Milan correspondent, Peppe Di Stefano, has indicated that the talks for Reijnders are at an “advanced stage.” The Dutch midfielder has become a top priority for Manchester City`s central midfield reinforcement, with the Premier League champions eager to complete the signing before the Club World Cup.
Reijnders has been a standout performer for AC Milan this season, contributing 15 goals and 5 assists in 53 appearances across all competitions. His impressive form has not gone unnoticed, attracting interest from several top European clubs, including Real Madrid.
Despite recently extending his contract with AC Milan, Reijnders` future at the club appears uncertain. Manchester City had previously expressed interest in the player during the January transfer window, and they now seem determined to secure his services.
AC Milan`s failure to qualify for European competitions in the 2025-26 season may force the club to consider selling one of their star players for financial reasons. This situation could potentially facilitate Reijnders` move to Manchester City.
As negotiations continue, football fans eagerly await further developments in this high-profile transfer saga between two of Europe`s most prestigious clubs.
