Man City Rejects £6.5m Hoffenheim Bid for Defender Doyle Amid European Interest

Manchester City have firmly denied any interest in signing Real Madrid forward Rodrygo, despite ongoing transfer speculation. Rodrygo's inconsistent form and Real Madrid's acquisition of new attacking talents have complicated his future, with Arsenal monitoring the situation but no concrete offers made. Meanwhile, Manchester City rejected a £6.5 million bid from Hoffenheim for 21-year-old defender Callum Doyle, who has spent multiple seasons on loan at clubs including Sunderland, Coventry City, Leicester City, and Norwich City, and is keen on a permanent move away to secure first-team football. Doyle, an England Under-21 international, has attracted interest from several clubs across England and Europe, including Udinese, with a permanent transfer expected soon. Despite his successful loan spells and 158 senior appearances, Doyle has yet to make a first-team appearance for Manchester City and is reportedly set to follow fellow academy graduate Juma Bah in leaving the club permanently this summer. Additionally, Kyle Walker is anticipated to end his Manchester City tenure amid interest from clubs like Fenerbahce.
