Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City team have already suffered three losses in the Premier League this season. However, if they were to win the game in hand over the league leaders, Liverpool, they would be just two points behind the Reds as the season enters the decisive phase.
History has shown that Guardiola has the ability to motivate his players in the second half of the season, ensuring that they hit top form at the right time. Despite not having talisman Kevin de Bruyne for much of the season, Manchester City’s strength in depth has helped them to their current position.
The team’s success is also attributed to their solid recruitment strategy, buying players at the right price and for specific positions, rather than focusing on big names that might not fit the system.
According to reports from the Daily Star (h/t Fichajes), Manchester City has set their sights on Girona’s Brazilian winger, Savinho. Savinho has scored 11 goals this season, helping Girona reach the top of La Liga. If this form continues, a maiden Spanish top-flight title is within their grasp.
As City Group owns Girona, there is a strong possibility that the 19-year-old winger could be joining Manchester City at the start of the 2024/25 season.
If Manchester City’s pursuit of Savinho is successful, this could further strengthen their squad and provide them with the depth needed for another title challenge in the following season.
Nevertheless, as Manchester City challenges for Premier League glory this season, there is no doubt that with Guardiola at the helm and with the right acquisitions, they will remain a formidable force in English football.
