Manchester City are reportedly keen on RB Leipzig and Bundesliga star Christopher Nkunku. However, fans on social media are not sold on the idea.

According to Bild via the Daily Mail, the Premier League champions have sent an enquiry to the east German side over the French midfielder. Moreover, other big clubs around Europe are keen on Nkunku.

The former PSG star is having a brilliant season with the Bundesliga giants. With Nkunku scoring a hat-trick against City earlier in the season in the UEFA Champions League.

And now, it appears that City’s director of football Txixi Begiristain has identified Nkunku as a potential signing. With the midfielder scoring 11 goals and assisting another seven in all competitions this season.

Indeed, City will face stern competition for Nkunk, who has been one of the best-performing midfielders in Europe this season. However, supporters of the Manchester giants aren’t keen on the Leipzig star.

After all, City have an abundance of midfielders in their squad. Moreover, whilst there’s no denying Nkunku’s talents, the Frenchman would simply become a squad player with the likes of Bernardo Silva and Kevin De Bruyne competing with him.
