Man City 2026 summer transfer tracker: Every deal, live
Updated at [time] BST 27/07/2026.
The last 48 hours have been dominated by Rodri: he has now told the club directly that he wants to join Real Madrid, with personal terms reportedly already agreed and only a fee left to resolve — a significant escalation from Friday’s “stand-by” picture.
City have also reaffirmed interest in Vinicius Junior amid his Real Madrid contract stand-off, added Pedro Neto to their wide-position shortlist, and will confirm Josko Gvardiol’s contract extension today.
Trafford’s move to Leeds has advanced, though it’s not yet a done deal.
Elsewhere, Foden’s contract renewal and the Ayyoub Bouaddi, Malo Gusto, Savinho and Rico Lewis situations remain unchanged from Friday.
✅ Confirmed signings
Elliot Anderson — Nottingham Forest, midfielder
Club-record £116m deal, medical completed in Kansas during the World Cup.
Jeremy Monga — Leicester City, forward
£12.5m deal, City beating off competition from Arsenal and Manchester United.
Pierce Charles — Sheffield Wednesday, goalkeeper
Heaven Kilwa — Aston Villa academy, 16-year-old defender
Mathys Detourbet — loan to Monaco
Mishel Nduka — Arsenal academy, 16-year-old midfielder
Josko Gvardiol contract renewal
New deal until June 2031, ending Real Madrid’s interest. Formally signed today, completing the deal agreed since June.
Phil Foden contract renewal
Foden has signed a new four-year deal, running to 2030 with a club option for a further year. Confirmed by the club, ending the speculation around his reduced role and any Barcelona interest.
❌ Deals that collapsed
Hermann Malonga — PSG, centre-back
Reported as a done deal in June, but Fabrizio Romano confirmed it has collapsed. His PSG situation is unresolved.
🔴 Confirmed departures
Reigan Heskey — FC Köln, forward
Subject to international clearance.
Manuel Akanji — Inter Milan
£13m purchase option triggered.
Bernardo Silva — Real Madrid
Free transfer, two-year deal to June 2028.
John Stones — released as a free agent
Now reported to be leaning towards a London move, Arsenal favourites over Chelsea.
Nathan Aké — Fenerbahce
Permanent move confirmed.
Matty Warhurst — Northampton Town, academy striker
£100,000 with a sell-on clause.
🔵 Live targets — incoming
Ayyoub Bouaddi (Lille, midfielder)
Personal terms agreed in principle, contract to June 2031 understood accepted. Fee talks ongoing, Lille holding out for around £85m (€100m by some reports).
No material movement on the fee in the last two days despite continued reporting recycling the same position — City still working to get ahead of United, Arsenal and PSG.
Enzo Fernandez (Chelsea, midfielder)
City have registered fresh interest in a second Chelsea midfielder alongside Gusto, with Maresca keen on a reunion. Not yet an advancing deal — sources describe talks as dormant for now but expected to accelerate.
Pedro Neto (Chelsea, winger) ⭐ NEW
Maresca has added his former Chelsea player to City’s list of wide targets, according to the Daily Mail, with the pair’s relationship from Stamford Bridge understood to be a genuine factor.
Chelsea paid £54m for Neto from Wolves two years ago and are reportedly seeking around £75m — a fee City are said to be reluctant to meet as things stand. He sits alongside Yan Diomande and Ibrahim Mbaye as City reshape their wide options.
Manu Kone (AS Roma, midfielder)
Talks held via intermediaries, fee around £50m.
Said El Mala (FC Köln, winger)
City accelerating, with Heskey’s move seen as smoothing relations between the clubs.
Alex Scott (Bournemouth, midfielder)
Manchester United more advanced.
Federico Valverde (Real Madrid, midfielder)
Real’s stance: not for sale unless he pushes.
Eduardo Camavinga (Real Madrid, midfielder)
City’s interest reportedly cooling.
Ibrahim Mbaye (PSG, winger)
Leading target to replace Savinho, PSG holding out for £50m.
Max-Edgar Chabot (Angers, goalkeeper)
Closing in on the 18-year-old.
Malo Gusto (Chelsea, right-back)
Personal terms agreed, deal stalled over Chelsea’s £75m valuation.
Jules Kounde (Barcelona, right-back/centre-back)
City alerted to potential availability.
Givairo Read (Feyenoord, winger)
Monitored, more direct option if Gusto stalls.
Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa, forward)
Competing with Bayern, Arsenal, Chelsea.
Eli Junior Kroupi (Bournemouth, forward)
Potential Haaland support option.
Yan Diomande (RB Leipzig, winger)
Liverpool pushing for a quick deal.
Ørjan Nyland (free agent, goalkeeper)
Contingent on Trafford’s exit.
Vinicius Junior (Real Madrid, forward) ⭐ NEW
City are among the clubs to have heard from Vinicius’s camp again, with his representatives indicating an exit is realistic amid a stalled Real Madrid contract stand-off, according to TEAMtalk’s Graeme Bailey.
Not everyone has it the same way — Ornstein’s reporting frames this as more of an Arsenal story, with Liverpool said to have turned down the chance to move for him.
How seriously City are involved is unclear, though there’s an obvious backstory: a Rodri fee from Real Madrid would, in theory, help fund the move in the other direction. Early stage only.
Marc Bernal (Barcelona, midfielder) ⭐ NEW
City have identified the 19-year-old as a potential long-term option to eventually succeed Rodri, according to Diario Sport. Bernal is regarded as Barcelona’s long-term successor to Sergio Busquets in the pivot role, has recovered from a serious ACL injury sustained in 2024, and made his senior Spain debut in June.
Worth stressing: no contact, valuation or advanced interest reported yet — just City’s name entering the conversation.
🔵 Live targets — outgoing
Savinho (winger)
Fee with Tottenham now understood to be around £65m (up from the £60m first reported), medical imminent. No fresh movement in the last two days beyond confirmation the figure has risen.
James Trafford (goalkeeper) ⭐ UPDATED
Talks have moved on from “favourites” to genuine progress: Torino are closing in on a deal for Leeds goalkeeper Lucas Perri, and once that’s done, Leeds will proceed for Trafford, according to Fabrizio Romano, with the player “keen on the move.”
No fee is agreed yet — City are seeking up to £40m, a club record for Leeds if it goes through — and nothing is finalised, but the sequencing now points toward a conclusion.
Rico Lewis (right-back/midfielder)
Kalvin Phillips (midfielder)
Advanced discussions over a loan return to Sheffield United.
Mateo Kovacic (midfielder)
AC Milan interested.
Omar Marmoush (striker)
Atlético Madrid most frequently linked, Tottenham also preparing a bid.
Jack Grealish (winger)
Second loan to Everton remains the more realistic outcome.
🟡 Contract situations
Rodri (midfielder) ⭐ UPDATED
This has moved decisively since Friday. Rodri has told the club directly that he wants to join Real Madrid this summer, for sporting and family reasons, according to Ben Jacobs — a new contract now looks off the table.
Personal terms with Real Madrid are reportedly already agreed, per Matteo Moretto, though no club-to-club talks have taken place yet, with Real Madrid said to be proceeding as though he’ll be there for pre-season regardless.
What’s left to resolve is the fee: Rodri has a year left on his contract, and City are understood to want the situation settled rather than dragging into the window. This sits alongside his ongoing recovery from back surgery, with no return timeline yet set.
Jeremy Doku
Closing in on a new long-term contract, according to Fabrizio Romano, with formal steps underway on a deal to 2031.
Abdukodir Khusanov
Set to sign an extension to 2031 alongside Doku, per The Athletic, though the club has not yet formally announced it — worth confirming before running as fact rather than “set to.”
Tijjani Reijnders
Expected to leave, now being kept by Maresca with Rodri’s contract uncertainty a factor in that decision.
Harry Kane (Bayern Munich, forward)
City “kept informed.” Speculative, nothing close to live.
