Tijjani Reijnders' father has shed light on the real reasons behind the midfielder's controversial transfer from Manchester City to Al Qadsiah. While admitting that massive financial rewards played a part, he explained that steep valuation demands from Europe shaped the move.
Manchester City have identified AS Roma midfielder Manu Kone as a primary target to reinforce their central midfield following Rodri and Tijjani Reijnders' departure. The French international was previously linked with Manchester United, but The Cityzens are now seriously considering a move worth up to €60m.
Tijjani Reijnders has completed a lucrative switch to Saudi Pro League side Al-Qadsiah. While Manchester City recoup a significant transfer fee, the deal triggers a unique clause that forces them to pay AC Milan a massive bonus. The Italian club are celebrating a brilliant financial return on a player they sold to the Premier League giants just a year ago.
