Manchester City defender Manuel Akanji could be on the move this summer, with his future set to be decided in the coming days. The Swiss international, who has been a reliable figure under Pep Guardiola, is now at the center of transfer talks involving Galatasaray and Bayer Leverkusen.
According to reports, Turkish champions Galatasaray have reached an agreement with City over a deal worth around £15 million. However, the transfer remains in limbo as Akanji has yet to give the green light. The 29-year-old is believed to be weighing up his options, with his next move likely to hinge on both sporting and personal considerations.
Galatasaray, who are preparing for another campaign in the UEFA Champions League, view Akanji as a key addition to strengthen their backline. His experience in Europe and versatility in defense make him a valuable target. Yet, the Istanbul giants may face stiff competition from Bundesliga champion side Bayer Leverkusen.
If the Ecuadorian defender makes the switch to North London, Leverkusen are expected to step up their pursuit of the City man.
