Michael Kayode, a right-back for Brentford who is an Italian youth international and also holds Nigerian citizenship, is attracting interest from multiple clubs, including Manchester City. It is reported that Manchester City have been watching the 21-year-old's progress. The club is seeking a new right-back for a potential summer arrival. Bayern Munich, Juventus, and Inter Milan are also monitoring him. Newcastle United also have interest; it is reported they were watching Kayode during his time at Fiorentina. Tottenham have a historical interest. Kayode joined Brentford 12 months ago, initially on loan from Fiorentina before the club exercised their option to buy. The defender, who has made 20 appearances in the Premier League this season, has a contract until June 2030 and holds 8 caps for the Italy U21 team. His current Transfermarkt market value is €27.00m. It was reported that in late 2024, before his move to Brentford, Liverpool was contemplating a €25 million bid.
