Manchester City management has released the list of 6 players to be offloaded this summer and Man City Star boy is on the list
According to a rumor on Monday, Manchester City could start their Premier League championship defense without adding any players to their roster during the summer.
Although there have been a few names associated with City this summer, such as Joshua Kimmich and Bruno Guimaraes, the off-season has been quiet for the first month after the season’s conclusion.
Transfer chatter is expected slow because the majority of their players are completely focused on international competitions, so it’s not surprising that the rumor mill has been hesitant to get going.
Ederson, Bernardo Silva, and Kevin De Bruyne are all associated with departures, thus their futures are still up in the air. It’s unclear if such rumors will result in actual interest, and it could take until later in the summer to find out.
If those players stay, City would probably be content to go on as they had a team that won the Premier League four times in a row and were unfortunate to lose to the ultimate champions in the Champions League.
Troyes’ loan Savio, a winger for Girona, has long been anticipated to join City, but due to his commitment to Brazil in the Copa America, any progress on that front is likely to take many more weeks. Troyes paid between £5 and $10 million for a player who has never appeared for them; it is unclear how much his worth will rise despite his success for Girona.
Instead, everyone could be watching to see who goes.
Pep Guardiola has said that he would welcome back the Portuguese player to his team in the event that a buying club cannot be found, but Joao Cancelo insists he won’t consider his future until after the Euros. Reintegrating Cancelo seems more of a challenge than a solution in light of his departure’s circumstances and his subsequent remarks, which scarcely display any remorse.
According to Spanish reports, City would be certain to receive £25 million from Barcelona for Cancelo, and they plan to seek for that amount either this summer or next year as part of any loan agreement. Also, they allegedly want £20 million for Sergio Gomez, who has a close connection to Real Sociedad.
After pre-arranged agreements for Tommy Doyle and Taylor Harwood-Bellis, the Blues have already invested £25 million to start their summer campaign. Another academy grad to go may be Liam Delap, whose realistic valuation would fall between Doyle’s £5 million and Harwood-Bellis’ £20 million.
There’s also Kalvin Phillips, who, after his precipitous decline from favor, will be sold if a buyer can be found. It seems impossible to recoup the £42 million paid on Phillips, but anything that raises the potential summer inflow to around £100 million would be a nice return. If the other rumored agreements go through, that could be somewhere between £15 and £20 million.
The supporters of City will undoubtedly want to add one or two new players to bolster their roster, but if they remain in place instead of changing, the summer may prove to be another lucrative one, preparing them for a future transfer window in which there will be no competition and the market will likely be more favorable.
