Club ready to let star player leave as Tottenham Hotspur rush for a £57m summer transfer bid

Manchester City, according to the Daily Mail, are willing to let Aymeric Laporte leave the club if he so wishes.

According to the report, City would not “stand in the way” of the center-back, who has played only seven league games this season.

Laporte, who joined City from Athletic Bilbao for £57 million, is said to be dissatisfied with his lack of playing time and wants to go.

According to a recent 90min report, Tottenham and PSG are both interested in the left-sided centre-back, with Tottenham in desperate need of one.

Manchester City has a recent history of selling to other Premier League clubs, as evidenced by the recent transfers of Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and Raheem Sterling. However, whether the player will be keen on a move to Spurs remains to be seen.

Laporte has been an integral part of Pep Guardiola’s recent success, most notably last season, when he played through pain to help City defeat Liverpool to the title.

However, a knee injury forced him to miss time, causing him to lose his place in the City team.

A centre-back is high on Daniel Levy’s transfer wish list, and Tottenham have been connected with a variety of prospects ahead of the summer transfer window, including Piero Hincapie, Milan Skriniar, and Bastoni. Laporte is the most recent name to be mentioned, and he would undoubtedly be a viable alternative.
