Abduqodir Khusainov is on the verge of joining Manchester City for €50 million.

The transfer of Khusanov is expected to be the first reinforcement for the "Citizens" in January 2025.

Due to injuries to key defenders — Ruben Dias, Nathan Aké, John Stones, and Manuel Akanji — Pep Guardiola's club is compelled to explore options to strengthen their defense.

According to Guardiola, the team requires reinforcements, and signing central defender Khusanov could address this issue.

Reports indicate that the next priority for "City" will be forward Omar Marmush from Eintracht Frankfurt.

It is worth noting that Abdukodir Khusanov joined "Lance" in 2023 from the Belarusian club "Energetik-BGU." He played 31 matches in Ligue 1 and 18 games for the Uzbekistan national team, allowing him to quickly make a name for himself on the European stage.
