Andrea Cambiaso reportedly has an agreement with Manchester City, but Liverpool might pose a threat to the Premier League champions.
According to a report by Gazzetta dello Sport, as relayed by Sport Witness, Andrea Cambiaso is the subject of interest from Manchester City. The Juventus wide player has an agreement on personal terms with the Premier League champions. However, the Citizens face stiff competition from Liverpool for the 25-year-old versatile full-back.
Andrea Cambiaso and his rising stature
Andrea Cambiaso has seen his stock soar since breaking into the first-team squad at Juventus. A native of Genoa, he had to bide his time before finding a stable footing at the Serie A club. However, he has not looked back since returning from a satisfactory loan spell with Bologna in the 2022/23 season.
The 25-year-old has been a mainstay at the back for Juventus since the start of the 2023/24 season, turning out 74 times thus far for the Bianconeri while chipping in with five goals and nine assists. Cambiaso’s exploits for the Serie A giants have helped him break into his national squad.
In addition, the Italian wideman’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Premier League bigwigs, in particular, are keen on signing the versatile Juventus full-back, with Liverpool and Manchester City among the prospective suitors vying for his signature heading into the summer transfer window.
Premier League adventure beckoning?
Liverpool’s interest in Andrea Cambiaso is understandable. The Reds are on the verge of losing Trent Alexander-Arnold as a free agent, with the English international closing in on sealing a Bosman move to Real Madrid. So, Liverpool can do with a right-back, with the Juventus wide player emerging as a viable target. He can also be an option for the left-back berth.
As for Manchester City, the Premier League champions were keen on signing the versatile full-back in the winter transfer window but will push for his signature for the summer. While Pep Guardiola does not have a recognised left-back in his squad, Kyle Walker will seal a permanent move away from the Etihad this summer.
The report has claimed that Cambiaso has an agreement on personal terms with Manchester City. However, Liverpool might pose a threat to the Premier League champions, making it an enticing race for his signature.
