According to the latest report from authoritative soccer media Football Insider, Manchester City midfielder Kovačić has clearly expressed his unwillingness to leave the team to play in the Saudi League. Previously, there were news that Saudi Arabia's giants Riyadh Victory regarded Kovacic as an important attraction target and were prepared to offer him a contract with a weekly salary as high as 800,000 pounds in order to attract him to join. However, in the face of such attractive salary conditions, Kovacic was unmoved.
According to sources, Kovačić turned down a high-paying offer from the Saudi League mainly because he was confident of continuing his career at Manchester City. As an important member of the team, Kovačić is highly appreciated by manager Pep Guardiola, and the two of them are highly compatible with each other in terms of tactical philosophy, contributing to City's brilliant performance together. In addition, Kovačić himself also harbors the dream of continuing to play at the highest level, and he believes that he has the ability to continue to fight for Manchester City in the Premier League and European competition in the coming years.
It's worth noting that Kovačić's contract with City expires in 2027, meaning he still has plenty of time to write his own legendary chapter at City. Since joining the club last summer, Kovačić has quickly integrated into the team and has made 50 appearances in all competitions, showing excellent athleticism and professionalism. His decision to stay in the team has undoubtedly given City fans a piece of mind and laid a solid foundation for the team's stable development in the future.
