One of the big moves this summer is the imminent departure of Kevin De Bruyne from Manchester City and Pep Guardiola is analyzing his rivals and the market to find the perfect player to replace him.
Pep Guardiola could leave Manchester City in the summer of 2025, as his contract with the English club expires in the same year but while he remains in charge, the coach wants to make signings that will allow him to increase his chances of winning titles.
But it is practically impossible to sign one of the players the Catalan coach wants at any cost because the biggest problem is that the ideal replacement is currently wearing a Real Madrid shirt.
According to information received from the Spanish newspaper Defensa Central, the transfer market this summer is still ongoing, although Real Madrid could have closed its window to arrivals after the inclusion of Kylian Mbappe and Endrik and its closeness to contracting with Lenny Euro, but Real Madrid’s competitors continue to search for strengthening their clubs with the best elements. .
The newspaper added that one of the most talked about departures will occur in Manchester City: Belgian Kevin De Bruyne, Manchester City player, after a long period in the Blue Club, may be tempted to go to Saudi Arabia to obtain a huge salary, and accordingly, Pep Guardiola will lose one of his players. So it has already made it clear that there is only one potential player to replace De Bruyne.
The newspaper continued, the only problem is that signing this player is impossible because the Spanish coach placed Jude Bellingham as the only midfielder capable of assuming the duties that Kevin De Bruyne will leave when he leaves Manchester City, but Bellingham does not want to leave Real Madrid.
Although Pep Guardiola has told Manchester City’s sporting directors that Jude Bellingham is the ideal signing to replace Kevin De Bruyne, everyone at the Etihad Stadium knows that they have arrived too late to sign the Birmingham-born midfielder and will have to find another candidate in the offing. A better situation than the Real Madrid star, who has been “linked” to the Santiago Bernabéu for many years.
