Farewell summer at Manchester City?
It could be an emotional summer for MCFC, with club legends like Bernardo Silva and John Stones leaving the club, and long-time manager Guardiola possibly taking over.
The Spanish tactician is better than some of the club’s best players in recent history and looks almost impossible to replace.
Former Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has been linked with a move to join City, according to talkSPORT and other sources, and is likely to be a hot candidate as he has done a great job at Stamford Bridge and previously worked on Guardiola’s staff at City.
