Signings will not stop! Manchester City will strengthen the right back and winger position, and three other players will leave the team

On June 17, The Athletic UK ace reporter David Ornstein led the update of this week's transfer weekly report, which also included Manchester City's part. Before this, the Manchester City part was written by TA's team reporter Sam Lee. In this weekly newspaper, DO introduced Manchester City's signing situation. According to him, Manchester City will not stop just because they signed four first-team new players.
In the mini transfer window closed before the start of the Club World Cup, Manchester City signed Wolves left-back Ait Nuri, Lyon midfielder Cherki, Chelsea substitute goalkeeper Betineri and AC Milan midfielder Reindes, and were also infinitely close to winning Norwegian 18-year-old talented midfielder Nippon. The joining of these players cost Manchester City 130 million euros. However, the Blue Moon Legion's signing steps this summer did not stop.
DO said that although Manchester City's new football director Viana also went with the team when the team arrived in the United States, his work will not stop during the Club World Cup, and the fate of some players in the team may become clearer after the Club World Cup ends. Now, Manchester City's signing targets will target right back and winger positions.
After signing Kyle Walker in the summer of 2017, Manchester City's main right-back position has been controlled by the extremely fast England wing. In the European Triple Crown season, Walker has an advantage in the competition with young juniors such as Martineli and Vinicius, becoming one of the biggest contributors to Manchester City's triple crown. However, as he grows older, Walker, who has declined in form, left the team on loan to join AC Milan in the winter window last season. After that, Manchester City's right-back position was taken by young Rico Lewis and Portuguese midfielder Mattus and Nunes. However, the former has inherent physical fitness, while Matt Usnuès lacks defensive awareness. Neither of them is the best answer for Manchester City's right-back position.
In fact, during the winter window last season, Manchester City was associated with Juventus full-back Cambiaso, but it was left unresolved because Juventus asked for too high prices. In addition, 21-year-old Flamengo full-back Wesley was also a target for Manchester City to strengthen the right back. In addition, there are not many players in the transfer market that meet Manchester City's requirements. In addition, Manchester City now has a total of 10 defenders, including 7 central defenders. Although some of them can play for full-backs, if they continue to sign, this huge number will still become a burden.
Guardiola had said before that he liked a streamlined lineup. So, there will definitely be someone leaving the Manchester City defense line this summer. The old captain Kyle Walker is the first to be hit. Mourinho's Turkish Super League Fenerbahce has already contacted Walker. If the two sides reach an agreement, Manchester City will be happy to let the person go and will not set any obstacles on the transfer fee.
In addition, Galish, who did not go to the Club World Cup with Manchester City and McCarthy, who led the England U21 to play in the European Cup, may also leave the team. They will decide their future after the Club World Cup.
At the winger position, Manchester City may also strengthen. Although they have many offensive players, only Savigno and Doku are pure wingers. Although Foden, Malmush, Cherki and B-seat can all make guest appearances, Manchester City hopes to sign a winger player with a fast speed and stronger vertical ability, so that Guardiola has more tactical choices. As for the candidate issue, DO did not disclose it. However, according to Manchester City's buying habits, once rumors appear, it will be not far from the official announcement.
