With the end of the current Premier League season only nine games away, most clubs are now looking ahead to the summer transfer window to strengthen their squad ahead of next season.
Manchester City are no different, scouting Europe for new talent, looking to bounce back as The Citizens have failed to defend their Premier League title this campaign.
Currently in fifth, City are hoping to secure a slot in the Champions League before the end of the season, with Liverpool, Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Chelsea in the top four.
Looking ahead to the summer to not have a repeat next year, Pep Guardiola’s side are now targeting a former Manchester United goalkeeper, who strangely never played a game for The Red Devils.

Manchester City look to sign Vanja Milinkovic-Savic
Back in 2014, United signed Serbian goalkeeper Vanja Milinkovic-Savic, agreeing for the star to remain with his former club, Vojvodina, on loan for another year.
However, at the end of the next season, the goalkeeper failed to obtain a work permit to allow his move to the UK, with The Red Devils having to let him go.
After the disappointing affair, Milinkovic-Savic joined Lechia Gdansk for a year before joining Torino where, after loan spells with SPAL, Ascoli and Standard Liege, he’s now become their first-choice goalkeeper.
This season, the 28-year-old has kept 10 clean sheets in 30 games, with Tuttosport reporting he’s drawing interest from both Manchester City and Napoli.
City are reportedly looking at selling Ederson ahead of his contract expiring in 2026, with the Serbian goalkeeper being high up on the list to replace him.
As such, Milinkovic-Savic may finally get his chance to play at Old Trafford, however this time against The Red Devils.
