It looms as a busy and critical summer for Manchester City and their rebuild. If the club get their summer signings right it could set them up for years to come. But if City don’t get their signings right it could set their rebuild back by at least six months. Typically, Manchester City don’t miss often in the transfer market. However, the recent signings of Kalvin Phillips and perhaps Matheus Nunes do suggest otherwise. But looking ahead a new report indicates that City could be set to hit the summer transfer window with both barrels.
A new report from Spanish journalist Hugo Cerezo suggests that Txiki Begiristain is set to defer his departure from Manchester City until the end of the summer transfer window. It was announced that Begiristain would leave his role as City’s director of football at the end of the FIFA Club World Cup. This is due to the size of the rebuild that is required at City and to help Hugo Viana settle into his new role as per Cerezo’s report.
Based on Hugo Cerezo’s report it appears that Manchester City will hit the summer transfer market with both barrels. With Begiristain set to aid Hugo Viana in his work, it does help Manchester City’s summer plans. Viana has a strong reputation as a director of football based on his work for Sporting CP. Txiki Begiristain is a master operator as he has shown at Barcelona and during his time at Manchester City. Off the pitch, the pair did combine for a successful January transfer window for City. The hope is that can continue in the summer.
Summary.
Manchester City look set to hit the summer transfer window with both barrels. Txiki Begiristain and Hugo Viana have a big job ahead of them due to the size of City’s rebuild. But based on Hugo Cerezo’s report they will both oversee City’s summer transfer dealings. That is a good thing for City in what looms as a key summer for the club.
