's replacement of Kevin De Bruyne may be an impossible task, but Manchester City has identified Tejani Reindez as his replacement. After winning four consecutive Premier League titles, Manchester City lost the title of the king of England this season, and Guardiola began to rebuild the roster for next season in January's transfer window.

Manchester City spent 218 million euros to introduce five new players throughout the winter window, which is undoubtedly the highest among all clubs. Omar Marmuch's transfer fee of 75 million euros set the sixth highest record for Manchester City's transfer fee in the winter window. With De Bruyne's departure, Manchester City signed Reindes. It is reported that they have reached an agreement with AC Miran, with the first transfer fee of 55 million euros, and may pay another 15 million euros in floating transfer fee in the later stage. The personal treatment of the Dutch international has also been finalized and will be announced soon. The transfer market website combines the insights of Italian experts to analyze the talented midfielder and elaborates on why Manchester City regards him as a world-class genius.

Tejani Reindez was born in a Dutch football family. His father, Martin, was a former Eredivisie professional, and his younger brother Eliano Reindez currently plays for Zwolle and has chosen to represent the Indonesian national team. Tejani Reindez grew up at Valvik Club, Zwolle Club and Alkmaar Club in his hometown, and finally transferred to AC Milan for 20.5 million euros in 2023. Reindez performed well in his debut season in Italy, making 50 appearances in various competitions, helping AC Milan finally fall into the verge of Inter and finish second in Serie A.

Although AC Milan ended up only ranked eighth in Serie A this season, the Dutch international has attracted the attention of many giants with its stable and outstanding performance. At AC Milan, Reindes has experienced three head coaches this season, with his roles varying under the three head coaches, and by contrast, he performs better when he has higher freedom in the frontcourt. Reindez is competent for both B2B midfielders and more controllable in the double midfielder formation. He scored 15 goals for AC Milan this season, a number that exceeds any midfielder in the five major leagues.

Reindez was nominated for the transfer market website Italy Player of the Year, which Serie A expert A Niello Luciano detailed the midfielder. Luciano said: "AC Milan's season is not exciting, but Reindez's progress is very obvious and he is one of the highlights of the Ross and Blacks. His growth coincides with his tactical role in the team, and under different coaches he has transformed from the core of the organization to the conductor. Whether with or without the ball, he acts as a glue between the midfield and the front line. This style of play gives him greater freedom of movement, and he uses his full vitality and intelligence. He has Excellent vision, but not purely the core of the organization, can appear in a three-midfield or double-middle formation, his transfer is smart, he is always active in passing, but may pass mistakes due to his always adventurous passes.

Regarding Reindez's ability, Luciano added: "He is best at showing himself in a team with a lot of passes, and he can quickly break through the opponent's press in a small space to gain more offensive space. Reindez specializes in push-through passes and running in offensive three zones. He still needs to work hard to build stronger cohesion with his teammates and maximize his efficiency. He has a unique style of playing, which is evident when he has the opportunity to not take on defensive responsibilities – he always desires to move forward and think about the problem from an offensive perspective. ”

Manchester City’s interest in Reindez is sincere, and he is happy to transfer, especially when AC Milan misses the Champions League next season. Last month, Reindez emphasized his ambitions: “My biggest goal is to win as many trophys as possible. Because the purpose of my football is to record my name into history. My dream is to be a candidate for the Golden Globes one day, which means a lot to me, it all depends on my personal performance and the trophy I won. ”

Reindez is currently the second highest-priced player in AC Milan, reaching €50 million, and his market value has increased by €20 million in the past year, making him the eighth highest-priced player in Serie A. AC Milan reportedly hopes to sell Reindez at a club record price this summer, with the current record holdinger Kaka transferring to Real Madrid for €67 million in 2009. Although AC Milan recently renewed his contract with Reindez until 2030, Manchester City has reached an agreement with him that if the additional clause is met, he will become the holder of AC Milan's record for player transfer fees, with transfer fees of €55 million plus floating clauses of €15 million, totaling €70 million.
