Manchester City is open to offers for their 21-year-old homegrown prospect Liam Delap, who will be returning from his loan spell at Hull City. The club has reportedly decided that Delap does not have a future at Manchester City beyond the summer transfer window and is ready to cash in on him. Delap, the son of former Premier League footballer Rory Delap, made his first-team debut in 2020 but has struggled to secure regular first-team minutes.

The 21-year-old spent the current season on loan at Hull City, where he managed eight goals and two assists in 32 appearances. Despite his potential, his underwhelming loan spell has put his future at Manchester City in doubt. The club is looking to sell Delap for around £10 million and may include a buyback clause in the deal to potentially bring him back in the future. It is clear that Pep Guardiola does not have long-term plans for Delap, making a move away from the club likely in the summer transfer window.

With Manchester City ready to part ways with Delap, it will be interesting to see where the young attacker lands next. While he may not feature in Guardiola’s plans, Delap’s potential could attract interest from clubs in the EFL Championship or even the Premier League. The decision to sell Delap signals the end of his time at Manchester City, and his next destination will be a key decision in shaping his career moving forward.
