Manchester City is planning to strengthen their team with two key additions in the January transfer window: a center forward who can step in for Erling Haaland in critical moments and a central midfielder to fill the void left by Rodri, who will be out for the rest of the season due to a serious knee injury. The City board believes that these signings are essential to keep the team competitive and address the absence of one of their most influential players.

Injuries have plagued the Premier League champions at the start of this season, with several key figures sidelined, including Kevin De Bruyne, Ruben Dias, and Jack Grealish, leading to some inconsistent results. Guardiola has made it clear that the absences have disrupted the team's scheme, especially following recent defeats against Bournemouth and Sporting de Portugal, highlighting the need for alternatives in key positions.

Manchester City Needs a Replacement for Rodri

Given this situation, City will prioritize the search for a defensive midfielder who can fill Rodri's role in the center of the field. The absence of the Spaniard has affected the team's defensive solidity, and Guardiola requires a player who can bring balance and control to that area, crucial for his style of play.

Moreover, the lack of a direct replacement for Haaland has left the team without an effective plan B in attack, especially after Julián Álvarez's departure to Atlético de Madrid. While players like Phil Foden and James McAtee have tried to cover the position, Guardiola needs a natural striker who can guarantee goals and allow for rotating Haaland without losing offensive effectiveness.
