According to what Pep Guardiola stated, Man City reportedly would need some reinforcements in the January window to respond to increasing injury issues and then breathe life back to their deteriorating campaign per the Premier League. They are positioned sixth in the table, closer to the leader Liverpool with 12 points on their backs, which has happened after suffering six league defeats plus a number of key injuries one after the other Rodri, John Stones and Ruben Dias. However, there have been reports that Abdukodir Khusanov, a defender from Lens, may make a move to Manchester City. Guardiola, however, did not say anything about the veteran rights back,” who happens to be Kyle Walker, regarding his future with the club.

Guardiola Addresses Transfer Needs And Walker’s Future

Pep Guardiola recognized the current woes surrounding Man City and admitted that there were intent and a plan to bring reinforcements in the January transfer window given the injuries suffered by the team. Prior to their game against Brentford, Guardiola said that Rodri’s injury was a blow to their work, but they have also suffered several injuries in their defensive line and did not deny their crisis. The coach observed that had some problems been addressed earlier, the team would not be in the same position they currently find themselves in. Guardiola also responded to matters concerning Kyle Walker. He confidently verified that, after the FA Cup victory over Salford, Walker had tried to make his exit very public. However, there was no new update as to Walker being in the squad again.
