Manchester City’s poor performance in the English Premier League season seems to have pushed Pep Guardiola into thinking of a overhaul in his team.
Following four straight league losses, Pep Guardiola’s team had a tough game against Nottingham Forest, but Liverpool took the control of the Premier League title.
For all the progress that City showed in their midweek win, the rumours continue to circulate, specifically according to Spanish media that Guardiola has a list of four players he is willing to sell.
Grealish, Walker, Matheus Nunes and James McAtee Are On Pep Guardiola Transfer List
On the reported list of candidates to be transferred includes Jack Grealish. Although he successfully thrived in a central midfield position in the game against Forest, it is reported that Comolli’s leash at the club is virtually gone.
The record £100 million signing has often been accused of inconsistency and Manchester City are apparently planning to cut their losses and sell him while his value is still mover the roof.
Kyle Walker is yet another famous player tipped to leave the Etihad. The 31-year-old has attracted interest from, among other clubs, Sheffield United, the team in which he started his career, but sources claim he has been told he will not be part of the team Guardiola is assembling for the following season.
The long term future of Walker at City football club has been doubtful and the above developments only ignite the fire.
James McAtee, a promising academy graduate, and Matheus Nunes, who joined from Wolves in the summer, are also said to fall into the category of unwanted players. Nunes has taken so much heat especially after his big money move with his performances been labeled as a disastrous investment.
Pep Guardiola commended his players following the match against Forest, particularly Grealish Speaking of changes, there are believed to be plans to revamp the team after what has been considered a blip for the departing champions.
City are currently nine points behind Liverpool, managed by Arne Slot, with Chelsea and Arsenal also now moving ahead in the table.
The exits will be seen as typical of Guardiola’s pragmatic approach of not tolerating mediocrism even in surplus value or elongated veteran of well-heeled stars.
Lack of confirmation of the above-reported transfer decisions is likely to encourage more speculations as January comes near.
For Manchester City the question is do these transfers point to a short regenerative period or is it a new shift in the team’s evolution in response to Guardiola’s management?.
