Manchester City is interested in acquiring a So Paulo defender.

Brazilian news sources claim that Manchester City is one of the clubs vying to capture So Paulo defender Lucas Beraldo.

According to journalist Alexsander Vieira, the child is being pursued by a number of clubs.

Barcelona is notable as being the most likely candidate to make an offer for Beraldo. However, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Manchester City, and Paris Saint-Germain also made inquiries.

According to reports, So Paulo is okay with the situation because they either want to sell the player for a high price or plan to keep him for the Copa Libertadores campaign the following year.
According to reports, the club wants to make Beraldo the most expensive defender to ever leave Brazil by selling him for at least €20 million.

According to the source, the midfielder is being pursued by’minor clubs’ in England in addition to Manchester City.

That basically implies that they wouldn’t be able to compete with Pep Guardiola’s team or the European powerhouses that are also interested in signing him.
