A few days ago, expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed that Man City had reached an agreement with RB Leipzig on the case of Gvardiol. The Croatian center-back will undergo a medical today before signing the contract. According to The Sun, Gvardiol’s fee is expected to surpass the £100 million threshold and make him the most expensive defender in history.

But recently, sporting director Max Eberl has denied any transfer rumors related to the Croatian center-back. Specifically, Max Eberl has confirmed that Leipzig has not yet agreed to sell Gvardiol: “Man City want to recruit him and Josko can imagine the prospect of him in a new shirt. However, the two clubs are still very far from an official agreement.

We have not reached an agreement with Man City, including the initial negotiations. The Szoboszlai deal secured our finances. At this moment, RB Leipzig does not need the money. We want Josko to stay.”

Mr. Eberl was also unhappy when referring to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, when he said that Man City and Leipzig had agreed on the Gvardiol deal: “I know there has been a lot of information about Josko and it surprised us. But as you can see, Josko is still here, so that is not true.

Besides, coach Marco Rose assured Gvardiol will not leave the Red Bull Arena: “Josko is our player. As far as I know, he is still on the staff of RB Leipzig. I have not been informed that Gvardiol has been medically examined at Man City. He’s still ours.”
