Manchester City are currently going through their toughest phase in Pep Guardiola’s era and the club are prepared to turn things around.
Having registered just two wins in their last 14 matches, Manchester City have drawn up a seven-player list of potential January buys who could help them turn around their season.
Pep Guardiola, following the victory over Leicester City on Sunday wrote off his side’s title chances but wants to add more quality to the squad in January.
The Catalan coach believes his team need some reinforcements due to their current injury situation which sees the likes of Rodri ruled out. “In some positions we need help,” Guardiola said.
According to reports from Mail Sport, Joshua Kimmich, coming to the end of his Bayern Munich contract, Atalanta’s Ederson, Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton and Marc Guehi are all said to be on Guardiola’s watchlist.
It is also said that City could look to strengthen further forward. Liam Delap is linked with the Citizens holding a buy-back clause.
Also making the list is Eintracht Frankfurt’s breakout superstar Omar Marmoush. Lille forward Jonathan David is another possibility after netting 19 goals in 28 games for club and country.
Martin Zubimendi and Bruno Guimaraes have also been discussed at the Etihad Stadium but January transfers are not expected for their pair.
Manchester City will welcome one new arrival in the shape of River Plate’s Claudio Echeverri. However, the 18-year-old is most likely to spend the latter half of the season bedding into the squad.
