Manchester City could be set for a squad overhaul in summer 2017 with up to seven players looking likely to depart.
Pep Guardiola has already made his mark on the City squad with an array of young, exciting talent arriving at the Etihad Stadium in his first transfer window. However, the Mirror reports that Gabriel Jesus will be the one January incoming with the rest of the business being saved for next summer.
With seven players in the last year of their contracts, that will include a number of exits – only Fernandinho has been offered a new contract, and the report claims he is close to agreeing a two year extension. However, Pablo Zabaleta, Jesus Navas, Bacary Sagna, Gael Clichy, Yaya Toure and Willy Caballero could all depart when their deals expire next June. Elsewhere, the Daily Express claims Joe Hart’s City career is over with the keeper set to join the summer exodus.
