Manchester City has told defender Nathan Ake that he can leave the club this summer with West Ham said to be interested in acquiring the 27-year-old’s services.
This is according to The Times, who reports that Manchester City has told Ake that he can leave this summer.
This comes two years after joining the club during the summer of 2020.
One club said to be interested in the City defender is West Ham, who is in the market for a centre-back this summer having relied heavily on Craig Dawson and Kurt Zouma throughout the season.
The Times claimed back in April that Ake was on West Ham’s radar ahead of the upcoming window, whilst Eurosport reported in January that the Dutchman would be interested in a move to the Hammers should they make a push to sign him.
Ake is still an important player in the City squad due to his ability to play both centre-back and left-back but it is reported that Pep Guardiola understands that the 27-year-old may want more first-team action.
