Manchester City are reportedly keeping a close eye on Athletic Club’s Oihan Sancet as a potential target for next summer. According to Fichajes, the 24-year-old midfielder has caught the attention of Pep Guardiola, with the club considering a move that could bolster their midfield options.

Sancet, who has been a key player for Athletic Club, is under contract until 2032, which gives the Basque side a strong position in any transfer negotiations. The reported asking price is around €60 million, a figure that reflects his importance to the team and his potential value on the market. Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur have also shown interest in the past, suggesting that competition for his signature could be fierce.

Manchester City had a relatively quiet summer transfer window, adding only Savinho from Troyes, who was on loan at Girona last season. With key players like Kevin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva potentially leaving next summer, City might see Sancet as an ideal replacement to maintain their midfield strength.

Sancet’s performances in La Liga have positioned him as a promising talent, and a move to a club like Manchester City could be the next big step in his career. Whether City will make a formal bid remains to be seen, but with Guardiola’s knack for identifying and nurturing talent, Sancet could be a name to watch in the upcoming transfer windows.
