Manchester City has shown interest in acquiring Gabri Veiga, who is currently playing in Saudi Arabia. The club, recognized as one of the top five globally, aims to bring the young central midfielder, known for his offensive inclinations, to their team. Their interest in Veiga persists despite his current reputation as a 'football anti-hero'. Veiga is reportedly eager to return to Europe after his stint in Saudi Arabia, where he signed a three-year contract worth 40 million euros. However, the decision is complicated by the involvement of the Saudis, as Veiga is under contract for at least another year.

Spanish midfielder Gabri Veiga is reportedly on Manchester City's radar, as the club considers bringing him back from Saudi Arabia. Veiga, who was among the most promising players in La Liga during the 2022/23 season with Celta Vigo, might make a return to Europe nearly a year and a half after his move to Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli. It is understood that this is a pivotal moment in Veiga's career in Saudi Arabia, as he is currently in the second year of his three-year contract and must soon decide whether to renew. Sources suggest that while Veiga is aware of the interest from major clubs, he is not inclined to push for a move.

Gabri Veiga, who is currently playing for Al-Ahli in the Saudi Pro League, has expressed an interest in returning to Europe. It has been reported that Manchester City is among the clubs keen on acquiring him in the upcoming summer transfer window. Veiga, who moved from Celta de Vigo to Saudi Arabia, is under contract with Al-Ahli until the middle of 2026. Although he initially faced difficulties, he has managed to find some stability this season. Manchester City reportedly considers him an ideal addition to their offensive system.
