Premier League giants Manchester City are reportedly set to provide stiff competition to rivals United in the race for AC Milan defender Leonardo Bonucci.
The Italian joined the rossoneri from Juventus last summer for a fee of 42 million euros in what was one of the most shocking switches in Italian football in recent times. He appeared in 35 games last season and impressed for the club in his first full season.
Corriere dello Sport report that Manchester City have joined the race to sign Bonucci, with United also in the race for the player.
It is felt that the clubs are looking to take advantage of Milan's perilious situation, after they were banned from playing European football.

Marcos Alonso is Spanish not Italian bro
i know that marcos alonso is spanish, but he have an Italian mentality, that's what I mean by Italians. Italians are the master of defending. ask scezny, how his performance has improved with his roma and why he is not willing to return to the premier league especially arsenal

how Italians are not good in the premier league, give me an evidence to prove . i will give you an evidence to prove that they are good. marcos alonso coming from fiorentina to chelsea , winning his first premier league title under antonio conte of 2016-17 season. there is another evidence, but i believe is enough to prove you wrong

trust me no one will take advantage of us because simply as that if any player want to leave we will let go but in the same time he also should bring us good offer for him

I don't see why City always going for these players that absolutely everyone wants, especially players in this age range. Dude is like 31yo, how many years do we expect to get out of him? What are the scouts doing, what do they get paid for? We never seem to find any hidden bargains, just throwing cash around because we can. 4 seasons ago we could have sign VVD for peanuts and we turned him down, now we were looking to shell out over 50m last year. Smh. City needs to get their scouting act together

I think Man united should invest in younger players, he is already above 32years. How much do he have in him again and he pay will be above £150,000 a week. For me it's a bad investment

I think City is doing what United have been doing to us, which is show interest in their targets to boost their price up and maybe make a late swoop. I cannot see City buying anyone over 26 years old for the next few years.

how disappointing , ac Milan to see them being banned from europa league for two years due to financial play regulations , forcing to sell their players especially bonuci who they bought to return them to their glory days, but failed? when will we ever see ac Milan back in champions league? they are the only one who can compete with real Madrid. real Madrid are happy because they know no one can stop them except ac Milan
