Man City ready to offer £10m for England U17 goalkeeper transfer in huge FFP boost to Everton

MANCHESTER CITY are ready to move for Everton’s young keeper Douglas Lukjanciks — and could pay as much as £10million for him.

England Under-17 cap Lukjanciks has been chased by several clubs but City are keen to land him this summer.

The deal would help the Toffees keep their Financial Fair Play numbers in check as Lukjanciks is home-grown and that is significant in the calculations.

City want a young keeper to groom for the top.

They sold several others in recent years who never played for the club.

There could even be an exchange deal with City sending a young home- grown player to Everton as the two outfits thrash out the package.

According to reports, Man City could face competition from Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen.

Lukjanciks has dual nationality thanks to his Latvian heritage, which means he could move abroad.

He reportedly finishes school in the summer, and is expected to sign scholar terms with Sean Dyche’s side.

Tottenham, Aston Villa and Marseille are also said to be keeping close tabs on the teen wonderkid.

Lukjanciks is regarded as one of England’s most promising keepers and plays above his age group.

Most of his appearances have come in the U-18 side, during the U-18 Premier League campaign.

It is believed Everton see him as being a future No1 at the club in the years to come.

Currently, the Merseyside giants boast Jordan Pickford, Joao Virginia, Andy Lonergan, and Billy Crellin as their keeper options for the first team.

While Fraser Barnsley and Dylan Graham are the U21 options.
