Nathan Ake is a Manchester City defender attracting interest from Newcastle United, West Ham United and Everton. Manchester City are prepared to sanction a sale and value Ake around £30–35 million, with his contract running until June 2027. Ake has been a reliable squad option but frequently competes for minutes behind Ruben Dias and John Stones. His ability to play centre-back and left-back adds versatility. Ake is open to a move that guarantees regular starts. Everton face Premier League restrictions requiring a permanent deal, while Newcastle can offer European football and a prominent role.
Ake has been a reliable squad player for Pep Guardiola but has often found himself battling for minutes behind the likes of Ruben Dias and John Stones. While his versatility, capable of operating as both a centre-back and left-back, has been crucial for City, the player is believed to be open to a transfer that would guarantee him more consistent starting opportunities, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside.
Meanwhile, Newcastle United and West Ham United are also keen on signing the Dutch defender but the Magpies are better placed to match the ambitions of the Man City defender. Newcastle can offer continental competition this season and the promise of a prominent role in their squad. Whether it is Newcastle, West Ham or Everton who act fastest could determine where the Dutchman calls home before the window closes.
