Out of 15 matches played, Manchester City recorded 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats. Despite Pep Guardiola’s attempts to replace Rodri with Kovacic or Nunes, he quickly found that none of his players could fill the void left by the Spaniard.
The winter transfer window could allow Manchester City to strengthen its midfield. According to the Daily Mail, Pep Guardiola would have checked the name of Bruno Guimarães. The Newcastle midfielder, closely followed by the Citizens, is considered the priority to strengthen the team in January.
Linked to Newcastle until 2028, Bruno Guimarães had already mentioned the interest of Manchester City. If he recognized the mutual admiration with Pep Guardiola, he minimized the transfer rumors.
But according to the Daily Mail, Manchester City’s interest in Bruno Guimarães is very real. The English club would seek to strengthen their midfield in January and the Brazilian international would be at the top of Pep Guardiola’s list of priorities, attracted by his physical and technical profile.
Manchester City will, however, have to pay a colossal sum, since Bruno Guimarães’ release clause is estimated at 100 million euros. This operation would be very lucrative for Lyon, which would receive 20% of the transfer amount.
