Manchester City Advised To Sign Former Manchester United Star

Manchester City Advised To Sign Former Manchester United Star

Premier League champions Manchester City have been advises to make a move for a former Manchester United star in the January transfer window.

The Citizens have been hit by injuries in the central defensive area, which has seen the side suffer a few defeats in the league this season.

Having failed to replace Vincent Kompany and Aymeric Laporte missing through injury, former City defender Richard Dunne feels the club should put in a bid for Leicester City's Jonny Evans, despite his previous links with Man United.

"For all their attacking prowess, and it is very good, City have failed over the last couple of years because you always think they're not strong enough at the back," Dunne told the Irish Independent.

"And now they need two centre-backs. One, Laporte, is out with an injury and the other two don't seem capable of putting together a string of performances to allow them keep clean sheets.

"I can't see Guardiola going out to buy one, but they need someone who could come in right now and help out. Jonny Evans has been brilliant for Leicester, he knows the league and I wouldn't be surprised if they did earmark him to come in for a year or 18 months.

"They will have to spend over £100 million to get a top-class centre-back, someone like Evans could be good in the medium term but he is doing well at Leicester, they are happy with him and he's happy there, so the Foxes would be entitled to ask for a very big fee.

"Toby Alderweireld is out of contract with Spurs at the end of the season, but would City really hand him a five-year deal?"
