James McAtee is looking for more playing time and is attracting significant interest from both domestic and international clubs. He is not prominently featured in manager Pep Guardiola's plans this season. Fiorentina, along with Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, and Bologna, have shown interest in McAtee as he considers a move with the upcoming U21 European Championship in mind. Domestic clubs such as Nottingham Forest, West Ham United, Brentford, and Crystal Palace are also monitoring his situation. Manchester City is hesitant to let him go, despite McAtee reportedly feeling 'unsettled' due to limited opportunities under Guardiola. The young midfielder, who spent last season on loan at Sheffield United, is considering following in the footsteps of his peers like Cole Palmer and Morgan Rogers, who left City to further their careers elsewhere.
