Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly keen on signing 25-year-old Barcelona goalkeeper Inaki Pena.
According to a report from Spanish outlet Fichajes, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are hoping to sign 25-year-old goalkeeper Inaki Pena from La Liga outfit Barcelona, and they would have to pay €30 million for him.
There is no doubt that both clubs have the financial muscle to get the deal done, and it will be interesting to see if they follow up on their interest with an official offer to sign the Spanish goalkeeper.
Inalki Pena is not a key player for Barcelona, and he won’t be a regular starter for them as long as Marc-Andre Ter Stegen is at the club. It would be ideal for the 25-year-old Spanish shot-stopper to move on. It will be interesting to see if Manchester City or PSG are willing to provide him with game-time assurances.
Manchester City have been linked with a number of goalkeepers in recent weeks. It will be interesting to see if Ederson Moraes is moved on in the coming months. The Brazilian has been linked with an exit from the Premier League club, and clubs in Saudi Arabia are reportedly keeping tabs on him. Recent reports have also linked Stefan Ortega with a departure.
Pena could fancy Manchester City or PSG move
Manchester City are one of the wealthiest clubs in the world, and they have the financial resources to get the deal done. The Barcelona goalkeeper could be an interesting acquisition for them. The opportunity to play for them will be attractive for any player. They would get to join a club capable of winning trophies regularly, and the Spaniard would also get to play under a world-class manager like Pep Guardiola.
Similarly, PSG are one of the biggest clubs in Europe as well, and they could be an attractive destination. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops. The €30 million asking price is quite reasonable and Barcelona are going through financial difficulties. The Spanish giants are likely to sell if their demands are met. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
