Top ITK Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that absolutely nothing is happening within Manchester City concerning Lucas Paqueta.
Paqueta
With the FA still conducting their inquiry into accusations of irregular betting activities, that comes as no surprise but the Italian often hears things from inside clubs which suggest that something could break.
Paqueta and City
However, on this occasion he has explained that whilst the player is appreciated by City absolutely nothing is happening at the moment.
However, the good news is that with Pep Guardiola signing Matheus Nunes in the summer in that position, another similar signing in midfield might not make sense as a priority.
He adds that Kalvin Phillips could leave but for now there has been no confirmation one way or the other.
He adds in his Daily Briefing that it is too early to discuss Newcastle links until they see how their Champions League group stage campaign works out this season.
