According to the source, the foreign legionary personally got on the pencil of the head coach of the team of Jose Guardiola following the results of the two demonstrated games of the current Champions League with Shakhtar. With the "miners" the British have already established contacts and even agreed on a preliminary transfer date in 2018, but ManCiti wants to get the player's transfer guarantees before. This is especially important for the team, as the "townspeople" refuse from the services of the African Yaya Toure, who used to play in the defense.

The English club is also considering the option with the acquisition of the player "Borussia" Julian Wiegle. Himself Guardiola previously signed Douglas Costa and Chygrynsky, in his choice of players mentor mistakes rarely. How easy and for what amount of Donetsk will be able to part with Fred, that's already a question, ManCity does not name the sums of a possible transfer.

As reported in "URA-Inform", recently Donetsk "Shakhtar" signed the 19-year-old defender of the youth team from Brazil Dodo.
