Manchester City need to make some moves in the transfer market. Euro 2024 and other distractions have caused a slow beginning, but there is still enough time. Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak is not expected to have the squad finalized by July as usual, as the club is waiting on key players to make decisions about their futures. The decisions made by Ederson, Kevin De Bruyne, and Bernardo Silva will determine the level of activity at the Etihad stadium. Additionally, there is anticipation for movement among fringe players seeking loans or permanent transfers, and the academy is expected to generate a substantial amount of revenue. Considering this, City’s goals for the summer should be examined. An example of a crucial transfer that Man City must secure this summer was highlighted by England. “Man City has made a ‘truly unusual’ decision to challenge the Premier League in court. They are taking legal action to address this issue.” It’s time to part ways with Joao Cancelo for good. City may have to consider sending him on loan with a requirement to purchase this summer, in order to avoid their coach being constantly questioned about a player who won’t be staying at the Etihad. While it is unlikely that City will recoup the £60m they spent on Cancelo in 2019, it has been five years since then and the full-back played a crucial role in the team’s success, winning two Premier League titles. If it is worth paying a discounted fee to release him and remove him from the team’s budget, it seems like a good decision especially considering the money earned from previous loan deals.
