Man City considers offers for midfielder James McAtee ahead of January window

Manchester City is active in the January transfer window, having recently signed five players, including Omar Marmoush, while also considering potential outgoings, notably winger Jeremy Doku and midfielder James McAtee. Doku's representatives have reportedly offered him to Barcelona as he seeks more playing time, amid his limited role under Pep Guardiola this season. Meanwhile, McAtee, who has struggled for minutes, is attracting interest from Bayer Leverkusen, with the Bundesliga club looking to secure him on a loan deal with an option to buy. Guardiola has expressed admiration for McAtee, comparing him to Phil Foden, but recognizes the player's desire for regular football. These potential moves come as City navigates a busy transfer period while trying to balance squad depth and player satisfaction. The club's focus is now shifting towards offloading players to accommodate recent arrivals and allow others to gain valuable playing time.
