Manchester City is seeking to sign Gerónimo Rulli, the 34-year-old goalkeeper from Marseille, in this summer transfer market. The Argentine is the new request of Enzo Maresca, the new coach of the Sky Blue team, as reported by Fabrizio Romano.

The British club aims to finalize the transfer of the Argentine international for an amount close to €10 million to replace Gianluigi Donnarumma following James Trafford's imminent move to Leeds United.

The Request of Enzo Maresca for Manchester City's Goalkeeping Position

Coach Enzo Maresca has requested the addition of the goalkeeper after confirming the agreement for James Trafford's transfer to Leeds United. Manchester City's sports area has made progress in direct contact with the goalkeeper's representatives, who have given the green light to his return to the Premier League.

The 34-year-old player previously belonged to the Manchester City team but never made an official appearance with the first team. In the last season with Marseille, the player conceded 52 goals and kept a clean sheet in 9 matches, establishing himself as a starter in Ligue 1.

The Stance of Marseille on Gerónimo Rulli's Departure

Marseille's board is aware of the English interest and is considering selling their goalkeeper, whose contract expires in June 2027. With only 12 months left on his contract, the French club is willing to negotiate his departure for the €10 million market price.

The arrival of the Argentine will allow Manchester City to complete their goalkeeping squad for the Premier League and continental tournaments. The veteran goalkeeper will serve as an alternative to Gianluigi Donnarumma in the rotation planned by the coaching staff for the 2026/2027 season.

The boards of Manchester City and Marseille will have a formal meeting during the first days of August 2026.

Manchester City's goal is to finalize the transfer of Gerónimo Rulli for €10 million before August 10, allowing the player to pass medical exams and join the squad before the start of the official first match.
