Manchester night reported that Manchester City urgently needed to clarify the whereabouts of several key players within the last seven days of the transfer window. Of the 11 most commonly used starters last season, four players may leave the team this summer, but there is not much time left for Guardiola to form a streamlined lineup.
There were just two games in the season and the No. 1 goalkeeper's position is still pending. Ederson participated in training last week, but was only placed on the bench against Wolves due to Galatasaray's keen interest. Despite previous reports that the transfer is about to be completed, the Brazilian goalkeeper does not seem to be in a hurry to leave the team, and he leisurely left the Etihad Stadium after Saturday's game. There is still a lot of work to be done in this deal.
Donnarumma officially bid farewell to Paris Saint-Germain on Friday, and Manchester City has negotiated with the club about the goalkeeper who has only one year left to sign the contract, but the deal can only be advanced after Ederson leaves the team.
Ortega was told to leave after Manchester City signed Trafford early in the month, but he stayed with the team for the time being due to uncertainty in Ederson and the injury of new third goalkeeper Bettinelli. Despite this, it is almost impossible for him to stay in the team until the transfer window is closed.
Savignho posted a photo with a suitcase on social media, becoming the first player in history to express his willingness to transfer in this way. However, Manchester City demanded high transfer fees for Tottenham, and according to Spanish media reports on Tuesday, Real Madrid star Rodrigo will not leave the team at this window, making Savnijo's transfer even more complicated.
Akanji has aroused the interest of Galatasaray and Crystal Palace, and although he publicly denied that he had received any departure offer, he did not completely rule out the possibility of leaving. Guardiola did not put him on the roster on Saturday, and Gundogan was also excluded, who began to be reported to be likely to leave the team.
Losing Ederson, Akanji, Gundogan and Savigno will leave four of Guardiola's most commonly used players last season, coupled with Ortega's departure, which will bring huge personnel changes in the last week of the transfer window.
Manchester City needs to do some transfer operations because the number of non-local players they currently register for the Champions League lineup exceeds the standard, but it is still unclear how many players will leave the team in the remaining seven days.
