Multiple reliable reports are claiming that Manchester City are keeping tabs on Givairo Read, who plies his trade as a defender for Feyenoord. The move is still in the early stages, but interest appears to be growing. Manchester City remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Paris FC continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. Manchester City 's back line has been a real strength this season, conceding just 0.73 goals per game (8 in 11). Givairo Read would be expected to slot into that unit and hold his own in an already solid setup. Manchester City have recently been linked with Federico Valverde, Said El Mala and Guler Arda while Feyenoord have had no rumoured targets.
