Manchester City is preparing to introduce four to five new players this summer and continue to make major adjustments to the lineup. After signing two central defenders, a midfielder and a striker in the winter window, Manchester City's reinforcement targets are a goalkeeper, a defender and a creative midfielder.

Manchester City is currently actively promoting its recruitment plan, has held further talks with some preferred targets, and has developed a detailed final plan. Nottingham Forest attacker Gibbs-White is a player that Manchester City is trying to sign, and Manchester City has also shown a strong interest in Wirtz. Although it has spent 183 million pounds in January, the club still has sufficient financial resources to make more signings.

Manchester City is looking for players who can have a significant impact on the game, but these players will not have as high wages as some of the high-paid players in the team. That is the treatment that only a very small number of world-class players will have, and this type of player is not Manchester City's current target. For example, Wirtz, as one of the hottest new stars in world football today, especially with the attention of Manchester City, Real Madrid and Bayern, may ask for a higher salary, but he will definitely not get De Bruyne's 400,000 pounds a week.

Due to the registration restrictions for local players and Guardiola's desire to sign "reliable players", how to allocate the quota for local players and overseas players has become an issue that needs to be carefully considered. The stay or departure of Ake, Stones and Grealish all need to be questioned because they have been plagued by injuries in the past few seasons. And McCarty may also leave the team. Clubs such as Leverkusen and Nottingham Forest are very interested in him. In addition, the two central defenders Husanov and Reis introduced in January, one is 21 years old and the other just turned 19, Manchester City's lineup also needs some experienced players.
