Man City faces potential player departures this summer
Manchester City is preparing for a busy summer transfer season. Some older players have started discussing their futures, with more expected to follow suit. Midfielder Bernardo Silva has expressed his desire to continue with the team. Goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, on the other hand, is open to leaving this summer. Manager Pep Guardiola is currently taking a break from the demanding season. Meanwhile, planning for the next transfer window is ongoing behind the scenes. There may be significant player exits after the season ends. Guardiola has acknowledged that the team is aging, which could lead to tough discussions about player futures, especially for those struggling with fitness. Manchester City typically sees changes each year, whether it's club legends retiring or younger players seeking more playing time. Last summer, some players left, including Julian Alvarez. Ederson also considered a move to Saudi Arabia. The previous year saw Ilkay Gundogan and others depart. The upcoming summer seems likely to involve further changes. Many players are currently on international duty, providing an opportunity for them to speak openly about their futures. Guardiola will be listening closely to what they say. For instance, Kevin De Bruyne has remained quiet about his plans but might share his thoughts during national team events. Overall, Manchester City is keen to understand which players want to stay and who might be looking for new opportunities. The club anticipates major decisions will be made soon.
