Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter which relays a report that claims the City Football Group are interested in buying Italian club Palermo.

Widely known as the CFG, the football group currently owns significant stakes in football clubs in all of England, Spain, France, Japan, the USA, Uruguay, the Netherlands, Belgium, Australia, India, and China.

There have been many stories recently about Manchester City’s owners wanting to buy Brazilian club, Bahia, and now it seems the next club to join their ranks could be Palermo.

According to Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Palermo have been approached by City Football Group for a potential investment opportunity.

The interest in Palermo is currently believed to be at an early stage, but could develop over the next few weeks.

As per the report, it is still to be understood whether the deal will actually go through, but the holding founded by Sheikh Mansur would like to land in Italy as well.

The report was shared on Twitter by City Xtra and it attracted plenty of attention from some Man City supporters.
