Manchester CityNathan Ake did not have a significant role in the Premier League team this season.

Outgoing manager Pep Guardiola gave the Netherlands 688 minutes in 18 Premier League matches, including six starts.

That hasn’t stopped the Manchester City player from being included in Ronald Koeman’s squad for the World Cup. However, it could make the centre-back consider changing clubs this summer.

Barcelona have identified the 31-year-old as a low-cost option to improve their defence.

Last month, Sports Witness Covered claims from Spain The Citizens will not make any concessions to Barça, their Champions League rivals. Their wages are also a problem for the La Liga winners.

Turkish option for Manchester City player

Nathan Ake may have the opportunity to switch to Türkiye where Fenerbahçe could be an option, according to him photomac.

The Yellow Canaries will hold elections this weekend and their former president, Aziz Yıldırım, is running for the same role.

Yıldırım has talked about the importance of strengthening the defense and Aké is his top target.

He recently traveled to England to hold talks with Manchester City for a centre-back. If the presidential candidate is to win the upcoming elections he will bring the Dutchman to Istanbul.

The Etihad club are demanding €11m and the former AFC Bournemouth man wants salaries of €6m per annum excluding bonuses. Yildirim insisted that he could meet both of their demands and that he would insist on the transfer if elected as the new president of Fenerbahçe.

There is no mention of whether the player is open to a switch to Turkey. If he decides to leave Manchester City, he will likely have a choice among the top five European leagues.

Summer exit on the cards

The defender has 13 months left on his contract and is worth €15m transfer market.

Manchester City have yet to confirm Pep Guardiola’s successor, but Nathan Ake is unlikely to be a key part of the next manager’s plans.

Therefore, a move away from the Etihad could be a possibility this summer. This will improve his chances of featuring regularly next season.

tottenham Winger Manor Solomon had a good second half of the season at Fiorentina.

The agreement contained an option for La Viola to buy for €10m, after the initial loan had been partly repaid. The winger played a role in keeping them away from relegation, as they finished 15th in the table.

Despite missing several weeks due to injury, Solomon scored two goals and assisted once. He also retained a starting spot, which helped them secure a famous win over Juventus earlier this month.

sports witness Covered how the player is keen to leave Tottenham and stay at the Italian team. There have been doubts over Fiorentina’s own intentions but there may still be some hope for a permanent move for the winger.

paratisy potential key

Gazzetta dello Sport takes a closer look at a potential outgoing for La Viola this summer. With Fabio Grosso arriving as the new manager, director Fabio Paratici is now planning how to take the current project forward.

There is certainty that Jack Harrison will return to Leeds United having failed to make an impression under Paolo Vanoli. But things may not be so certain for Solomon.

Although Fiorentina are not keen on a permanent deal, everything depends on money.

That’s why ‘Paratici will try’ to convince Tottenham of the waiver. The current valuation of €10m appears to be too high for Fiorentina and efforts will be made to reduce it.

The Spurs’ openness remains to be seen. But what has been clear in recent weeks is that Solomon is very keen and that could help all parties involved.

tottenham should accept discount

As things stand, Spurs have nothing to lose when it comes to the winger. The 26-year-old joined for free and his exit will only give them capital gains.

There are injury concerns around the player and it is enough for Fiorentina to back out of a €10m deal. Even though he showed glimpses of his abilities in Florence, the same was not quite true at Villarreal in the first half of the season.

As a result, Tottenham must accept a discount in his exit. This will only generate money which will be used for signings, as the club is in desperate need of rebuilding. Solomon will not be part of that rebuild and delaying his permanent exit will reduce his chances of earning a good fee from a sale.

Newcastle United and Crystal Palace have been keeping an eye on Ousmane Diomande for some time, and the defender’s performances this season only reinforce why both clubs remain wary of a transfer.

At the age of 22, Diomande has established himself as a key man for Sporting CP. He has played regularly in domestic and European competitions, making over 40 appearances already this season. He averages over 2 clearances and almost 1 interception per game, while also maintaining a strong aerial presence.

Furthermore, his passing accuracy is above 85%, highlighting his ability to create from the back. That profile – physical, organized and reliable in possession – fits the modern Premier League centre-back mould.

Those demonstrations did not go unnoticed. His market value has steadily increased, and interest from England has remained consistent over the past year. Crystal Palace and Newcastle United both remained in the transfer picture during the January window, and it looks like their attitude is not changing.

Now, there is a clear indication of how the transfer could actually happen.

A Bola report: Sporting is open to transfer offers

According to Portuguese newspaper ballSporting are ready to negotiate the departure of Ousmane Diomande this summer if the right offer comes along.

The defender is currently valued at around €45m (£39m) by Transfermarkt. Importantly, the club are prepared to discuss offers in that range, despite his €80m (£69m) release clause. That price range has been suggested before.

This stance effectively invites interested clubs to return with concrete bids.

For Newcastle and Crystal Palace, this is a significant development. Both parties have monitored Diomande closely, and now they have a defined price bracket to work with.

Palace were the closest to signing him. was near the london club An offer of €55 million (£47 million) was considered last summer But the step was not completed. This amount could be substantial if it is presented in the summer window.

Newcastle, meanwhile, have maintained a long-term interest. With strong financial support, they are in good shape to act If they decide to prioritize a centre-back addition.

Crystal Palace and Newcastle transfer opportunities

Ousmane Diomande is expected to be included in Ivory Coast’s squad for the upcoming World Cup. That tournament could further raise his profile.

Sporting is time conscious. Portuguese clubs often try to maximize value through major international competitions, and Diomande fits into that strategy.

His rise has already been remarkable. Sporting signed him from FC Midtjylland in January 2023 for €7.5m (£6.4m), with bonuses taking the total fee to around €14.5m (£12.4m).

Since then, he has become one of the most reliable defenders in the league. His combination of strength, recovery speed and composure have made him an extraordinary performer.

For Newcastle United and Crystal Palace, the message is clear. The player is performing, the evaluation is defined, and the sporting ‘Ready to talk’

The opportunity exists again – this time with fewer unknowns surrounding the deal.
