The latest transfer news and rumours from Manchester City involving Rodri, Joao Cancelo and Sander Berge.
That's according to journalist Duncan Castles, who made that revelation on his latest The Transfers Podcast outing, with the Burnley man subject to high-profile recommendation at the Etihad Stadium before his eventual £25million transfer to Fulham instead. It's said that Vincent Kompany and Erling Haaland gave Berge glowing reviews.
However, as per Castles, the 46-cap midfielder might have even signed for the Premier League champions instead. His signature cost Fulham around £25million with add-ons and that moved was confirmed this week. Gundogan was allowed to leave Barcelona on a free transfer - despite only signing for the Catalan giants from City last summer - which effectively put an end to the midfield search. The 33-year-old has formally returned to the club, while he could even make his second City debut against Ipswich Town on Saturday afternoon.
Cancelo, 30, is training with City, but faces an uncertain future with the Premier League champions. When chatting to the media before his his star-studded side's opener with Chelsea last Sunday afternoon, Guardiola claimed there have been no formal offers for the former Juventus defender.
