Ederson replacement signs as £180m splurged on Prem stars – Man City’s dream 25-man squad

Manchester City could sacrifice Ederson to fund his replacement as they refresh their squad over the summer.

Manchester City could freshen up their squad in the coming weeks as they chase an unprecedented fifth consecutive Premier League title. Citizens boss Pep Guardiola will be reluctant to stand still, with his team dominating English football since his arrival in 2016.

With profit and sustainability rules restricting plenty of Premier League clubs this summer, City may need to offload a number of stars to balance their books.

But they could have their dream 25-man squad by the time the new Premier League campaign gets underway in mid-August.

But Guardiola will have one eye on constructing a team that can compete for silverware for years to come and, with Stones now 30 years old, the Spaniard could attempt to thrash out a deal with Everton to land £80m-rated centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite. But they may need to get his transfer fee down to be able to afford the expense.

City are also said to be desperate to sign Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes, who has illustrated his prodigious talents since arriving in England from Lyon two-and-a-half years ago.

The Brazil international could cost the north west giants as much as £100m unless they can move some players in the opposite direction. And the 26-year-old could be the man to replace Kevin de Bruyne in the long-run, with Saudi Arabian clubs also pursuing the Belgian.
