The winter transfer window is typically quiet, with activity often signaling squad issues. Manchester City is no exception, facing injury problems that have forced the club to enter the market unexpectedly—something Pep Guardiola openly acknowledged.
The Spanish manager emphasized that the club originally had no plans to participate in the winter window, but the injury situation has left Manchester City with little choice. However, Guardiola has kept any potential targets a secret.
Quote: “All month, you’ll ask me the same questions about everyone we’re linked with in the media, so I won’t talk about it. You can insist, but I won’t answer because I don’t know the situation. We know we shouldn’t have to enter the transfer market, and there’s a lot I don’t like about this.
The situation this season, with so many injuries, has made it necessary to try. But I won’t say what will happen next because I don’t know. Of course, I communicate with the club, but the process and everything going on—I don’t know because it’s very complicated. What will happen, will happen; beyond that, I have nothing to say,” Guardiola said.
