City is now hopeful that Juventus will be more open to negotiations during the summer transfer window. Cambiaso is aware of City's interest and would welcome a move, but he won't push for a transfer from his end.

Juventus is meanwhile looking for a replacement for Cambiaso, with Lazio's Nuno Tavares emerging as a potential target. Tavares is currently on loan from Arsenal and Lazio plans to sign him outright. This could lead to Juventus acquiring Tavares from Lazio for a profit.

Manchester City sees Cambiaso as a potential replacement for former captain Kyle Walker, who left the team.
