Pep Guardiola has said that he doesn’t expect Man City to be busy in the remaining days of the summer transfer window.
With just 13 days to go until the transfer window closes, Man City‘s only major piece of business has seen them bring in defensive midfielder, Rodri, in a club-record deal worth ยฃ62.8 million.
It has been claimed that they want to sign both a right-back and a centre-back, with the likes of Dani Alves, Joao Cancelo, and Harry Maguire all being linked with a move to the Etihad this summer.
However, Guardiola has insisted that he is ‘really happy’ with his current crop of players, which is no surprise considering their sensational 198 point haul over the course of the last two Premier League campaigns.
โIโm happy with the team, we are really happyโ, admitted the 52-year-old. โWe have to see if we find maybe one position, if we find something for it, but thereโs no real pressure because itโs not about signing a player. We have solutions for all the situations.
โDo we have exactly the solution that everybody from outside would be 100 per cent happy? I donโt think so because people want to have world-class here, world-class here and the guy on the bench has to be world-class as well. Thatโs not so easy. But we are of course working on it.โ
Asked if he is expecting any many new faces before the transfer window closes on August 8th, Guardiola suggested the champions will be doing very little business, if any at all.
“No, not many,” he said. “I like the faces that we have.
“Maybe but transfer market is so difficult and the team is good enough. Maybe zero, maybe one, maybe one and a half.”
