Man City "patches" defense with blockbuster Vitor Reis

Reis has flown to England for a medical , with Khusanov set to follow to bolster his defence.

This season has seen an unusual decline in Man City's defense, which has significantly affected the team's ambitions. Despite being the defending champions, Man City are currently ranked 6th in the Premier League, with 10 wins and have conceded 29 goals after 20 matches.

Faced with that situation, Man City's board of directors decided to act quickly in the transfer market. They not only targeted Reis but also planned to recruit defender Abdukodir Khusanov from Lens.

Vitor Reis is expected to sign a €35m (£29.5m) deal after completing a medical. Brazilian news agency Nosso Palestra has posted pictures of Reis and his agent on their way to Manchester, marking a major step forward in the deal. By joining City, Reis will overtake Lucas Beraldo as the most expensive teenage Brazilian defender in history. Although the young centre-back may miss Sunday's game against Ipswich Town and the Champions League clash with PSG, he could make his debut against Chelsea.

In addition to Reis, Man City are also close to signing Abdukodir Khusanov for £34 million. This is another big investment to patch up the holes in the defense. By bringing in two potential center-backs this January, Guardiola hopes to significantly improve the defense, thereby increasing the chances of competing for the title in the later stages of the season.
