Having already brought in Fernandinho and Jesus Navas this month, big
spending Manchester City have now set their sights on another high
profile summer signing with new boss Manuel Pellegrini is readying a 25
million pounds bid for Real Madrid centre-back Pepe.
Pepe found himself on the bench for the final few months of last
term with Jose Mourinho opted to line-up Raphael Varane with Sergio
Ramos as his first choice centre-back pair, leaving the Portuguese
international to warm the bench.
Incoming boss Carlo Ancelotti may seek to use the same pair as
his defensive unit and as such the Spanish giants could well consider
offers for Pepe.
