Manchester City Targets Signing of Rulli

Manchester City has begun efforts to secure a new goalkeeper, with James Trafford's imminent transfer to Leeds United during the current summer transfer window.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City has identified Argentine goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli, currently of Olympique Marseille, as the primary option to replace Trafford and serve as the team's backup keeper.

The report indicates that Rulli, 34, is open to the idea of moving to the Etihad Stadium, showing a clear desire to join Manchester City during the current transfer window.

Olympique Marseille is aware of Manchester City's interest in their Argentine goalkeeper, but negotiations have not yet reached the stage of a formal agreement between the two clubs.

New developments are expected in the coming days regarding the transfer situation, especially with James Trafford's move to Leeds United on the horizon. This situation will prompt Manchester City to hasten their steps to finalize the deal for Rolly before the start of the new season.
