BREAKING NEWS: coming from Fabrizio Romano, La Liga superstar centre-back has caught the attention of Man City’s Pep Guardiola and has urged the club to make a move for the former Barcelona star this summer. he said ” we City have conceded a lot of goals and have struggled to keep clean sheets for most of the game this season, this made me rethink of my options and I feel he’s the right man for the job”.

Mika Marmol of Las Palmas has drawn the interest of Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola, who may consider pursuing the former Barcelona star in the upcoming summer transfer window. This speculation arises from reports by FOOTBALLWAVE, indicating that Manchester City are eyeing the center-back to bolster their defensive options for the 2024/25 season.

While Manchester City displayed near-flawless defensive performances in the previous season, their current campaign has been marked by defensive vulnerabilities. Conceding a significant number of goals and struggling to maintain clean sheets throughout the season may prompt Guardiola to reassess his defensive lineup, presenting an opportunity for Marmol to enter the equation.

Marmol made his move to Las Palmas last summer from Andorra, with the 22-year-old’s talents acquired for a mere €1.5 million. However, it’s noteworthy that Barcelona holds a 50% sell-on fee from any future transfers, as reported by Mundo Deportivo. Having progressed through Barcelona’s youth setup and making his senior debut in 2021 before departing in 2022, Marmol’s journey has garnered attention.

Las Palmas is reportedly valuing the defender at €30 million, a figure well within Manchester City’s financial means, although the Premier League club will likely seek to negotiate the price downwards. The La Liga outfit may argue that Marmol’s performances this season justify the asking price, with the Spaniard making a significant impact at the Gran Canaria Stadium during his debut season.

According to FOOTBALLWAVE , negotiations for Marmol’s transfer could commence in the coming months, with Guardiola expressing a strong desire to acquire the player. While Las Palmas may be reluctant to part ways with the promising defender, the allure of a substantial transfer fee from Manchester City could compel the La Liga club to consider selling Marmol and potentially sending him to England this summer.
