Manchester City has set its sights on Michele Di Gregorio, goalkeeper of Juventus, as a possible addition for the 2025 season. According to recent reports, the English club is determined to strengthen its goalkeeping position, with the potential departure of Ederson at the end of the upcoming season.

The Brazilian has attracted interest from several European and Middle Eastern teams, opening the door for City to seek a top-tier replacement. In this context, 27-year-old Di Gregorio emerges as a key target for Pep Guardiola's team.

Di Gregorio on Manchester City's Radar

The Italian goalkeeper has excelled with solid performances in Serie A, becoming a cornerstone at Monza since his arrival in 2020. After a couple of loan years, the Lombard club secured his permanent signing in 2022, and his strong displays earned him a move to Juventus last summer. Since joining Turin, Di Gregorio has solidified his starting role, playing 27 games and keeping a clean sheet 12 times, attracting the interest of top clubs.

Despite Di Gregorio's contract with Juventus running until 2029, City is willing to negotiate his transfer to secure his services. The keeper not only showcases great shot-stopping abilities but also stands out for his ball-playing skills, a crucial element for Guardiola's playing style. The deal could materialize if Ederson opts to move on, prompting City to sign a reliable goalkeeper.
