Manchester City is preparing for significant investment in its squad, with a potential £300 million budget should manager Pep Guardiola depart next summer after a stellar tenure. Guardiola, who has won numerous trophies and transformed City into a dominant force, hinted at a possible exit, stating he is 'closer to leaving than staying.' In the immediate term, City is expected to allocate around £100 million for January signings to bolster their squad, following a quiet summer transfer window. Targets include German talents Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz, who align with Guardiola's playing style, though negotiations may be challenging due to their high market value. Despite financial fair play concerns, City is positioned to make strategic investments thanks to substantial profits from player sales. The club aims to maintain its competitive edge both domestically and in European competitions.
