Manchester City can sign Lucas Paquetá for the 2022/23 season, but the negotiation is not the simplest; check out details about this possibility!
Lucas Paquetá can reinforce the Manchester City, but for that to happen many negotiations will have to be carried out. According to information from the newspaper “L’Team”, Bernardo Silva would have been offered to barcelona and Real Madrid and the two Spanish giants appreciate the Portuguese name. If the Portuguese moved to one of the two teams, the Brazilian would be the first option to replace the current ‘darling’ of Guardiola.
Also according to the information that arrives from the French vehicle, Bernardo Silva’s businessman would have offered the Portuguese to Real Madrid and Barcelona for the trifle of 80 million euros. For the midfielder to play for Barça, the club would have to agree on the sale of De Jong for the Manchester Unitedwhile the Merengues would have to convince themselves to sign the Manchester City ace at this point in the transfer window.
If either of the two teams made the offer and the Cityzens accepted the 80 million euros, Pep Guardiola’s team would go after Lucas Paquetá. The Brazilian would be the number one substitute for an eventual departure from Bernardo Silva. It is important to note that the publication still puts Manchester City and its coach as possible obstacles to the sale of the attacking midfielder to Real Madrid or Barcelona.
The Portuguese is the absolute owner of the English team and has a contract until 2025. At this moment, Barcelona cannot do anything crazy due to its financial moment and also financial fair play. Real Madrid even have cash on hand, but Carlo Ancelotti talks about a closed squad for the sequel to the 2022/23 season. In the midst of all these uncertainties, Lyon recognize that they can sell Lucas Paquetá at any time in this transfer window.
In a press conference, on July 11, the president of Lyon stated that: “There are proposals for it. There are a number of players who feel completely in the project, and others who don’t. Economically, we have the means to pursue our ideas and goals. For Lucas, obviously the theme (transference) came up, and we are evaluating it. The coach gave his opinion and there is also the desire of the players“.
