We carried a report from Mundo Deportivo on Thursday, who claimed Wolverhampton Wanderers made an €18m bid for Oleksandr Zinchenko and the Manchester City player turned down an opportunity to join Nuno Espírito Santo’s side.
The same report also mentioned that Real Betis are now interested in signing the Ukranian international on a loan deal.
Spanish newspaper AS today claim Los Verdiblancos are looking to strengthen two positions in the transfer window as Quique Setién is hoping to bring in a new left-back and a midfielder.
Zinchenko was a part of Pep Guardiola’s side that won the title last season and was used as a left-back, while he prefers playing as a midfielder.
The report claims the English champions will allow the former PSV man leave the club and his ability to play in more than one position could help Betis ‘kill two birds with one stone’ if they manage to land the Manchester City player.
A loan move will benefit the player because he will struggle to get regular playing time, if he continues at the Etihad.
