More interceptions than Rodri – Player could join Man City first-team to replace Fernandinho [Opinion]

Fernandinho is out of contract this summer and could be on his way out of Manchester City, leading to the Sky Blues monotoring Ismael Bennacer, Manuel Locatelli, Adrien Rabiot, Denis Zakaria and Douglas Luiz as potential replacements.

But City may have an internal solution to his exit in the form of Yangel Herrera – a defensive midfielder currently on loan at Granada. The 22-year-old will return to Manchester this summer and might be worth a look after impressing in Spain.

Herrera joined City from Atletico Venezuela in February 2017 but has yet to make an appearance.
