Which Manchester City player has been linked with a move away?

Manchester City enjoyed their most successful season last season and their performances were to marvel at when they clicked in front of goal.

Records were broken, goals were scored and Pep Guardiola’s plans were unstoppable at times.

Speculation was rife within the summer for the incomings for Pep Guardiola, with one player signing and the other target going elsewhere.

Our players should have been in hot demand with many of our European competitors looking to acquire quality and the hot prospects from the Etihad Stadium. A testament of how far we have come that our best players are not linked elsewhere.

There was speculation regarding the outgoings, however, it mainly concerned the fringe players and failed to link our ‘poster boys’ with a departure.

You would have thought the papers would be speculating Kevin De Bruyne’s move to Barcelona, Sergio Aguero’s possible transfer to PSG or Raheem Sterling’s move away from the club.

Those rumours were non-existent and non-starters, largely due to the fact the City stars are content under Pep Guardiola and the challenge of winning more trophies is the greatest motivation for this squad.

However, there has been one rumour that has been widely reported within the last 24 hours.

Leroy Sane has been linked with a move to Juventus in the near future, whether that is in January or in the summer.

The Italian champions are prepared to link him up as part of the most impressive trio in world football, Paulo Dybala, Cristiano Ronaldo and Leroy Sane will set the Champions League alight and frighten any Italian defences.

But, there are stumbling blocks?

The likely £150 million fee will be the obvious stumbling block considering their finances and FFP will be taken up by Ronaldo’s wages.

The Serie A giants will have to sell before any signings are made, with Dybala, Miralem Pjanic and Douglas Costa most likely to give the Turin based team the greatest return.

Also, Manchester City is unlikely to let go of one their best player, no matter what the price is with Guardiola and the management hierarchy blocking any potential signing. They have a vision for the club, a period of dominance and continued structure is demanded in England and contested in Europe.

His exclusion in the Newcastle game and the lack of first-team opportunities may have caused his agent or representatives to spread a rumour regarding his potential desire to leave or want a new contract. The shameful aspect of modern-day football.

Something we will never know until any transfer is complete.

So, what do you think, is the rumour credible? Can City fans be worried that we could be losing our German who could be become one of the greatest? Let us know.
