According to information collected by Fichajes.net, Pep Guardiola wants three reinforcements to complete his squad next summer. The Catalan technician would consider it imperfect. He would have asked his leaders to make the effort to bring in three elements: a central defender, a midfielder and a left winger.

The media specifies that Pep Guardiola no longer has confidence in some of his central defenders. Ruben Dias, Manuel Akanji, Aymeric Laporte and John Stones are not at the expected level. The Citizens coach is looking for a new leader. In the middle of the field, the former Barça coach is not satisfied with the services provided by Kalvin Phillips. The name of Enzo Fernandez (River Plate) is mentioned in particular to operate a rotation with Rodri and Ilkay Gundogan.

Rafael Leao, priority to strengthen the attack

Finally, Pep Guardiola is facing the difficulties of Jack Grealish and Phil Foden, in attack. The technician would like to see an element capable of making the difference on the left side, strong in one against one, and to be decisive in the surface. The favorite would be Rafael Leao, who has been followed for several seasons. The operation promises to be complex, however, as the player has a contract that runs until June 2024 and many clubs are interested in him.

Manchester City currently occupies the 2e position in the Premier League standings, 5 points behind (and one game ahead) of Arsenal. The formation coached by Pep Guardiola notably conceded a defeat against Manchester United which left its mark a few days ago.

The Citizens remain in the race in the Champions League. They will face Leipzig in the round of 16 of the competition.
