Manchester City has Antonee Robinson, left-back from Fulham, among its priorities for signings in the winter transfer market, with the aim of strengthening its defense and covering the left flank more effectively.

Pep Guardiola's squad has set its sights on the American international, who has shown solid performance in the Premier League and could provide the stability and depth that the team needs in that position.

Manchester City needs to reinforce its defense

Currently, City has had to turn to Josko Gvardiol as a temporary option at left-back, even though the Croatian performs better as a center-back. With Robinson, the Premier League champions seek a more specialized solution for their defensive scheme, especially considering the multiple competitions they face and the need for natural alternatives in all positions.

This interest is not exclusive to Manchester City; Chelsea and Liverpool are also in the race to acquire the 27-year-old player. In Chelsea's case, the instability in Ben Chilwell's performance has prompted the search for a reliable replacement, and Robinson could meet the expectations of the London team. Meanwhile, Liverpool faces the physical decline of Andrew Robertson and sees in Fulham's left-back a long-term alternative to replace the Scotsman.

With his current weekly salary of £50,000 at Fulham, the move to a more renowned club in constant title contention would be a significant step for Robinson.
