Manchester City agree a deal to sign Argentina goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli from Marseille, with The Athletic reporting the transfer fee is €2 million. The BBC also describes the move as an agreement between the clubs, framing it as City securing Rulli for the squad.
Rulli previously spent a brief period with Manchester City in 2016, according to The Athletic. The move is also linked to City’s goalkeeping situation, with The Athletic reporting that Rulli is set to replace the departed James Trafford. Sources align on the identity of the goalkeeper and the club-to-club direction of the transfer, while details such as the reported fee and the specific replacement expectation come from The Athletic.
