The January transfer window is rapidly approaching. As per the latest news, Man City have joined the race for one of the top Arsenal target. Pep Guardiola is keen to make some major signing after facing major setback.
Man City have been out of form recently and no one really expected that. The Premier League champions have been only able to win 1 of their last 10 matches. Pep Guardiola is highly concerned about the current state of his club.
As a result, City are very likely to make some key signings next year. One is finding replacement for Rodri who will miss the rest of the season. Second signing which Guardiola is keen to make is attacking star who can deliver regularly.
Man City join Arsenal in the race to sign young Spanish international
The star is discussion here is Nico Williams who has been on the radar of Gunners since a long time. As per Football365, City have joined the race to sign him in order to improve their attack.
The report states that Guardiola is worried with the dip in form of summer signing Savinho. The 20 year Brazilian is without a goal or assist in his last 8 games. He has not been able to deliver on regular basis just like he did last season with Girona.
Arsenal have been impressed with Williams since a long time as they are keen to find a quality winger. Williams was being looked upon as an upgrade on Gabriel Martinelli. Only just s few days ago, Gunners were handed with a boost in the pursuit of Williams.
Barcelona who were keen to sign Williams have taken the exit route in the race. This was boost for Arsenal as they would have had low competition in January for 22 year old. But now, City have joined the race and eliminated the boost factor.
