Manchester City has set out to reinforce one of the areas that most worries Pep Guardiola ahead of the next season.

The Catalan coach has requested the sports management to incorporate a pure left-back, with the intention of relocating Josko Gvardiol to the center of the defense, his natural position. The idea responds to a key tactical need: to have a wing-back with offensive capability that not only provides depth but also can create advantages from the inside to enhance Haaland's performance.

The 6 full-backs that Manchester City has in mind

With this goal in mind, the English club has already begun to analyze possible additions, managing a list of six players with different characteristics but all sharing a common trait: being decisive on their side. Profiles such as Theo Hernández, a regular at Milan and the French national team, and others like Tyrick Mitchell, established at Crystal Palace, are present at the Etihad's offices.

Young talents on the rise are also on this list. Rayan Ait-Nouri, who has shined at Wolverhampton; Destiny Udogie, one of the revelations at Tottenham; and Milos Kerkez, who has stood out at Bournemouth at only 21 years old. Additionally, the Spanish player Álvaro Carreras, who has had an outstanding season at Benfica, has earned a place among the favorites of the coaching staff.

All of them are players with existing contracts and an important role in their teams, which means that if City wants to secure one of these signings, they will need to make a significant investment. However, in Manchester, they are accustomed to moving decisively in the market when Guardiola gives the green light.
