The Manchester City is looking for solutions to reverse the worst crisis of the 'Guardiola era'. The 'skyblue' team has managed to achieve 1 victory in the last 13 matches, recording, in addition, 3 draws and 9 losses. A terrifying statistic for a team that, months after being crowned champions of the Premier League, is 6 points away from the Champions League qualification spots.
For this reason, and in light of the physical exhaustion shown by several players during this season, the Manchester board is looking to shake things up to set their course for the future. One of the most highlighted pieces has been Kevin De Bruyne, who at 33 years old is beginning to be plagued by injuries and, considering that his contract expires at the end of the season, his future seems far from the Etihad Stadium.
The Replacement for Kevin De Bruyne at City
With that in mind, City has begun the search for a possible replacement in midfield and, according to reports from the British outlet 'CaughtOffside', they have already chosen a star. It is Jamal Musiala, whose continuity at Bayern Munich is up in the air as his contract with the club ends in 2026 and negotiations for his renewal are stalled.
This situation is being eyed by giants like FC Barcelona or Real Madrid, but the 'citizens' would like to get ahead in the race and would not spare expenses to secure the signature of the 21-year-old attacking midfielder.
However, from the offices of the Allianz Arena, they are not willing to part with one of their top figures and will insist until the end to achieve his renewal. Furthermore, the two giants of Spain appear as strong candidates in the bidding, but Pep Guardiola, aware of the urgencies of his squad, will pull out all the stops to convince the player and bring him into his ranks.
