Italian media outlet TuttoJuve broke the heavy news that top Premier League side Manchester City are salivating over Juventus' midfielder Rovera, who is on loan at Lazio, with the intention of bringing him into the fold for an astronomical price of 45 million euros during the winter transfer window.
Rovera moved from Juventus to Lazio in the summer of 2023 on a loan deal with a buyout option. So far, he has played 53 games for Lazio, contributing 4 assists, showing remarkable strength and potential.
It is reported that Manchester City has been favoring Rovira for a long time, as early as January this year, he has been included in the list of Manchester City reinforcements. With the opening of the transfer window, Manchester City finally decided to use real money, trying to grab the 23-year-old Italian international at a high price.
Rovera's departure is a big loss for Juventus, but in the face of Manchester City's lure of heavy money, Juve can hardly be blamed. As for Lazio, despite holding the right to buy out, but in the hot pursuit of Manchester City, whether it can keep Rovera is still in doubt.
At the national team level, Rovera has already played 2 games for Italy, proving his strength and potential. If he can join Manchester City, he will inject fresh blood into the team's midfield and give a strong impetus to the team's future development.
However, whether or not the deal will come to fruition will depend on the outcome of the three-way negotiations between Juve, Lazio and Manchester City. Fans will also be keeping a close eye on the matter, expecting Rovera to shine in the Premier League.
