Manchester City only made two signings during the previous summer transfer window, bringing back Ilkay Gundogan and securing a deal for Savinho. However, the club has been linked with moves for other players since then. One player that City have reportedly shown interest in is Raphinha, who recently impressed with a hat-trick for Barcelona in a Champions League match. The Brazilian winger has caught the eye of Pep Guardiola, who previously described him as an “exceptional” player during his time at Leeds United. With his recent performance, Raphinha has likely convinced Guardiola that City should make a move for him.
Raphinha’s hat-trick against Bayern Munich has taken his tally for the season to nine goals and eight assists in 13 games across the Champions League and La Liga. Guardiola has acknowledged the winger’s talent, and his performance in such a big game demonstrates his ability to deliver on the European stage.
