Report: Liverpool eyeing raid on Man City for ‘complete’ £30m wizard amid threat of relegation
Liverpool FC is reportedly monitoring Manchester City player Rayan Cherki as a potential transfer target. This interest stems from the uncertainty surrounding Manchester City's future following charges of financial rule breaches.
Why it matters
The potential relegation of a major Premier League club could trigger a significant shift in player movement and market valuations across European football.
Liverpool are among the clubs who could potentially take advantage of any severe punishments handed down to Manchester City over the coming months.
The Etihad Stadium outfit have been found guilty of 114 charges of breaching Premier League spending rules and face a series of major sanctions, including the prospect of being relegated one or more divisions.
If that were to transpire, it's widely expected that most of the current squad would leave for other clubs, and the Reds reportedly have their sights set on one of those who could be especially sought after.
According to TEAMtalk , Liverpool are said to be monitoring the situation of Rayan Cherki, who's also attracting interest from Chelsea, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain as each of those keep a close eye to Man City's fate.
