Rulli Deal Nears Completion
Manchester City are closing in on Marseille goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli, with journalist Fabrizio Romano reporting that the Argentinian international has accepted a contract offer. Romano expects the transfer to be sealed next week, saying: “Geronimo Rulli is close to completing his move to Manchester City.”
The Blues have moved quickly to bolster their goalkeeping options this summer, and Rulli’s arrival would add experienced cover between the posts.
What This Means
With the new season still a few weeks away, City’s recruitment team appear to be ticking off their list of priorities. Rulli’s signing would provide depth in a squad that has seen several departures this summer.
Whether he challenges for the number one spot or slots in as a reliable deputy remains to be seen.
