Premier League
City Squad Set for Trim, Says Guardiola
Pep Guardiola has predicted that Manchester City will actively trim their squad down before the start of the Premier League season.
City took 24 outfield players and three goalkeepers to the Club World Cup in America and face Al Ain in the second group game looking to secure qualification in the early hours of Monday morning.
Ilkay Gundogan is wanted by Galatasaray, while the injured Mateo Kovacic has had suitors. Jack Grealish, Kalvin Phillips and Kyle Walker are not part of the travelling party but are to be moved on.
Guardiola claimed earlier in the year that he will need a larger squad in future after being rocked by a steady stream of injuries through the last campaign.
But after making eight signings since January, he is also mindful that City cannot keep everybody happy if the size of the group remains the same.
Guardiola has typically operated with around 20 outfield players during his time at the Etihad Stadium.
