Ally McCoist expressed doubts about whether Pep Guardiola would try to sign a 25-year-old player in the summer transfer window. Manchester City is rumored to be interested in players like Lucas Paqueta, Bruno Guimaraes, and Eberechi Eze. While Guardiola is said to be a fan of Guimaraes and a potential deal is in the works with Newcastle, McCoist questions the suitability of Eze for City’s squad.

McCoist believes that Eze has the quality to play for Manchester City, but questions where Guardiola would fit him into the team. While some suggest Eze could play in midfield, his profile may not align with City’s style of play, particularly in a double pivot with Rodri. Guardiola may need to consider alternative positions for Eze, such as on the wing, to accommodate him in the squad effectively.

Considering the options Manchester City is exploring in the transfer market, it remains to be seen if Guardiola sees a potential fit for Eze in his squad. The speculation surrounding the 25-year-old’s potential move to City raises questions about where he would play and how he would contribute to the team in light of Guardiola’s tactical preferences and the existing players in the squad.
