Day five of the summer transfer window brought very little in the way of excitement for Manchester City fans as patience continues to be the name of the game.

As talk continues to circulate concerning the future of Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson, Tuesday brought about a fresh name when it comes to potential interest from the Etihad Stadium in the rearguard position.

The hunt to sign Sergio Gomez has also taken a fresh turn today, with a further two clubs joining Real Sociedad in the pursuit and showing more of a willingness to meet the Premier League champions’ valuation of the full-back.

As another day rolls by, here is your daily and comprehensive round-up of every piece of information provided across the media on Manchester City and their summer transfer window activity!

The Brazil international has worked his way onto the radar of the Saudi Pro League, with ‘staggering’ personal terms put to the player’s camp. (GIVEMESPORT)
