Manchester City are currently going through a deep and worrying crisis, a situation that Pep Guardiola has never experienced before. Painful defeats are mounting.<\/p>\n
The team has also suffered defeats against lower-ranked teams such as Brighton and Bournemouth, leaving a negative impression and increasing the team’s need for reinforcements in the winter transfer market.
\nAccording to information from the Spanish newspaper “El Nacional,” one of Manchester City’s top priorities is to sign a new midfielder to compensate for the absence of Rodrigo Hernandez, whose serious injury will keep him out for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n
The ideal option for them seems to be Martin Zubimendi, the Real Sociedad player, whom City had previously shown interest in, but no official offer was made.<\/p>\n
Although Zubimendi was close to moving to other Premier League clubs, such as Arsenal and Liverpool, he previously decided to stay with Real Sociedad. However, now, due to the unexpected results his team has experienced, the player is ready to leave Anoeta in search of a new challenge, especially if this challenge involves a move to Manchester City, where he will play a prominent role in the team, receive a high salary, and have the opportunity to participate in the Champions League and compete for major titles.<\/p>\n
Zubimendi’s contract includes a release clause of 60 million euros, an amount that Manchester City will not hesitate to pay in order to sign him. At the same time, Barcelona knows very well that the player will be taking his next step with Manchester City, making their hopes of signing him impossible at this time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
