Barcelona and Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing Manchester City defender Josko Gvardiol. The rumour adds another major name to City’s summer uncertainty as the club reshapes after Pep Guardiola’s departure.

Gvardiol’s age, defensive range and elite experience make him a natural target for clubs seeking long-term back-line upgrades. City’s stance remains key, especially with several senior players already linked with exits during the transition.
