    ROMANO EXCLUSIVE: City to offer up to €55m for Bonucci

    Pep Guardiola has always admired Juventus center back Leonardo Bonucci, and now he would like to have him at Manchester City. After failing in the attempt of signing Atletico Madrid 22-year-old Aymeric Laporte, the Citizens are seeking a high-rated defender, and they have offered €45 million for the former Bari man, but the Piedmont’s club has refused.
     
    However, the English club won’t renounce so easily to the 29-year-old, and are ready to offer up to €55 million to the bianconeri and a five-year deal to the player.
     
    Even in this case, the Serie A defending champions won’t let the azzurro leave, also considering the fact that Bailly joined Manchester United for €38 million. Moreover, Bonucci has no intention to quit Turin. Will Guardiola make another offer.
