The famous Italian journalist "Fabrizio Romano" revealed the interest of the German club Bayer Leverkusen in signing James Makati, Manchester City, during the next transfer period, and Romano stated that the German club had contacted Manchester City in order to obtain the services of the 22 -year -old.

James Makati is one of the graduates of the Manchester City Academy, where he returned to the team last summer after a loan period, and despite his participation in 14 games this season and scoring 5 goals, Makati did not get a fixed opportunity in the starting lineup of the team.

"Fabrizio Romano" pointed out that Bayer Leverkusen prefers to sign with Makati on loan, especially as the German team is affected by the injury of the French player Tirir, who will keep him away from the stadium until the end of the season, and Xabi Alonso, Bayer Leverkusen coach, is that Makati is an ideal option to enhance the team's ranks in The coming period.

Despite the great interest from Leverkusen, Romano stated that Manchester City and Pep Guardiola are hesitating to allow James Makati to leave, as they feel that the player has the ability to become an essential part of the squad in the near future.
