Manchester City are now ready to sell their ‘special’ 21-year-old youngster to a Premier League Rival for £50m this summer
According to reports, Manchester City is willing to let go of one of the young players that are on its roster.
Manchester City’s summer business has benefited greatly in recent years from the teenagers they have sold. In recent years, Pep Guardiola’s team has let go of promising young players including Gavin Bazunu, Romeo Lavia, Cole Palmer, and James Trafford.
Man City was getting ready to offer a “special” summertime 21-year-old.
The first team’s performance has generally not suffered as a result of their decisions to let rid of such individuals.
The young players in question have also been given the chance to play senior football abroad, and in certain instances, those opportunities have led to their becoming well-known figures.
Romeo Lavia won a transfer to Chelsea in the summer of 2023, but Cole Palmer is the clear winner.
ADVANCED CITY STORIES
However, The Sun (09/06/2024, page 55) reports that 21-year-old Liam Delap is a young player Manchester City is prepared to let go. There are rumors that City intends to trade Delap to an unidentified Premier League team.
According to the source, City’s main goal in offloading the striker, who was born in Winchester, is to assist them in resolving their ongoing problems with the Profit and Sustainability Rules.
Given that Delap is a homegrown player and that Guardiola called him “unique,” any sale of the player would be considered a pure profit under the current PSR regulations, according to Manchester Evening News.
Man City will be hoping that selling Liam Delap was not a mistake.
In our opinion, Manchester City will be hoping that they do not regret Liam Delap’s possible transfer, even if they may have to sell him for commercial reasons.
In the few games he played for City, Delap showed class wearing a City shirt. He is most known for his goal in a 2-1 Carabao Cup victory against Bournemouth.
The former Derby County goal scorer, though, has found it difficult to establish himself at Hull City, Stoke City, and Preston North End on loan.
But Liam Delap may show his class at a Premier League team with his muscle, determination, and eye for goal.
Manchester City is renowned for having a keen eye for talent, therefore it’s possible that they feel internally at ease selling Delap.
