Gvardiol weighing City contract offer amid Bayern interest

Joško Gvardiol is weighing his future as Manchester City offer a new contract while Bayern Munich circle with serious interest. The 24-year-old Croatian defender remains a cornerstone for his country heading into the 2026 World Cup, and his club situation is one to watch this summer. Bayern are exploring defensive options with Dayot Upamecano, Kim Min-jae, and Jonathan Tah already in the squad, but Gvardiol's profile still appeals to sporting director Max Eberl. For Croatia fans, the outcome matters, your defensive leader staying settled at City or moving to the Bundesliga shapes how he arrives at the tournament in the United States.
