Manchester City's offense is strong, but their defense is weak. Recently in the Premier League, the team failed to keep the goal against the bottom-ranked Southampton. With the possibility of the departure of center back Napolitano in the summer, the manager, Gordiona, has the intention to bring in Inter Milan center back Bastianini to strengthen the team's defense.

According to Turin sports newspaper disclosed that 24-year-old Bastoni has become a number of clubs such as Manchester City, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, Tottenham Hotspur and so on the object of competition. The 1.90 meters tall Italian international not only has excellent aerial advantage, but also has excellent individual technology, good at launching attacks from the back. In 150 games for Inter, he scored 4 goals and contributed 13 assists, a typical "sword guard".

Gaudiona is a big fan of ball control tactics, so he has a soft spot for "ball-playing defender" Bastianini, who is the type of center back that City desperately needs. As Inter Milan have failed to convince Bastianini to extend his contract, the club may choose to sell him this summer in order to avoid losses for both sides in the future, with City taking the opportunity to step in.
