According to Fichajes, the Etihad Stadium team is considering the possibility of recruiting the Spanish star.
Alex Baena is one of the most outstanding players in La Liga this season. With 5 goals and 13 assists in all competitions, this 22-year-old player has joined the list of Europe’s top assists.
The Spanish star usually plays the number 10 role, but when needed, he can also flexibly play in most positions in attack. Therefore, many teams have started to keep an eye on Baena.

Besides Aston Villa or Tottenham, according to sources from Fichajes, Manchester City is also considering the possibility of recruiting the 22-year-old striker in the summer.
The Manchester team needs to find a replacement for Kevin de Bruyne , in the context that the Belgian midfielder is old and has some physical problems. That’s why Baena has become a target for consideration.
The Spanish player is valued at 25 million euros by Transfermarkt, but in reality, teams wanting to recruit him will have to pay a much higher figure. Villarreal will completely take the initiative at the negotiating table, because the contract between the two sides is still valid until 2028.
