The Daily Briefing first reported that Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders is attracting transfer interest from Arsenal and other clubs. Numerous other sources have named his former club AC Milan as a club monitoring Reijnders’ situation. Some sources have suggested it is unlikely that Reijnders and the club will separate soon. A source said that Reijnders and City will most likely meet at the end of the season to clarify the situation. According to the same source, there is not currently any push from the player to move, and the club will not necessarily want to let him go so soon. City and Reijnders still need to finalise a decision, which will come at the end of the season.

According to the Italian outlet Calciomercato, a summer transfer for Tijjani Reijnders is considered a possibility because the 27-year-old Dutch international is no longer a priority player at Manchester City. The same outlet reports that several clubs in Europe are monitoring the midfielder. His former club AC Milan, along with Napoli and Juventus, is considered a strong potential destination. Reijnders joined City from AC Milan for €54.9 million. The Netherlands international has 30 caps and 7 goals for his country. His contract is valid until June 2030, and Transfermarkt states his current market value is €60 million. Before his move to England in June 2025, AC Milan's asking price was reportedly between €70-90 million.
