5 players Pep Guardiola will look to bring to Manchester City
Some would say it's the signing of the summer.Pep Guardiola heading to the blue half of Manchester is a game changer, make no mistake. Even if he is renewing rivalries with Jose Mourinho, the arrival of Pep to the Etihad Stadium will shake things up at the club like never before.There have already been reports that he will bin Vincent Kompany, a player who has served the club immaculately well over the last nine years.So the captain will be gone, the manager setting a marker down from the get go.But who is likely to come in? Let's take a look...
#1 Marc-Andre ter Stegen
Joe Hart should be taking a look over his shoulder.
England’s number one has been in decent personal form but still suffers from the occasional lapse. With the news that Kompany is on his way, Hart will know that he’ll receive no guarantees from Guardiola as to his tenure between the sticks.
Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen is becoming increasingly frustrated with life in Catalonia and has already begun to make noises as to leaving the Camp Nou.
The young German showed on more than one occasion against Arsenal in the Champions League recently, that he remains calm under pressure, is great with his feet as well as his hands and is a shot-stopper par excellence.
He’ll likely jump at the possibility of being one of the XI to spearhead Pep’s new City generation and arguably more game time means more chance of international honours, something that isn’t coming easy as yet thanks to Bayern’s Manuel Neuer.
A weekly tenure will certainly keep Neuer on his toes as well as Hart.
