Manchester City target German-Nigerian defender Nnamdi Collins signing next summer

English giants Manchester City are keeping tabs on Germany-born defender of Nigerian descent, Nnamdi Collins.

The 22-year-old, currently at Eintracht Frankfurt, is seen as one of the Bundesliga’s most promising young defenders, combining imposing physical strength with remarkable pace.

Collins, who came through Borussia Dortmund’s academy before moving to Frankfurt, has already caught the eye of Arsenal and Liverpool.

According to reports, English clubs are particularly impressed by his versatility and athletic profile, which make him well-suited to the demands of the Premier League.

Liverpool, in particular, has long been admired by Collins himself, who last September admitted that playing in England would be a “childhood dream.”

Despite his potential, Collins remains under contract with Eintracht Frankfurt until 2030, giving the German club significant leverage in any negotiations. Frankfurt is already bracing for a busy summer, with Nathaniel Brown’s potential record-breaking transfer dominating headlines.

Yet Collins’ situation could also lead to a multi-million euro deal if one of England’s top clubs makes a serious approach.

Collins represents a long-term investment in defensive depth for Manchester City, as Pep Guardiola continues to refresh his squad with young talent.

Arsenal and Liverpool, meanwhile, see him as a player who could strengthen their back lines for years to come. With Frankfurt reportedly open to talks if the right offer arrives, Collins’ future could become one of the Bundesliga’s major transfer stories this summer.
