According to the source, the transfer of the 25-year-old football player is currently the club's priority target in the market. This was influenced by the failure to negotiate the transfer of Ajax player Lisandro Martinez, who decided to join Manchester United.

The parties are currently in contact regarding a possible agreement.

The Ukrainian's current contract with the "townsmen" is designed for another 2 years. Previously, there was information that Man City did not intend to sell Zinchenko in the current offseason.
