Man City are facing the difficult task of replacing Kevin De Bruyne this summer, and they have a few names on their shortlist of possible options – and one of those is reported to be a rather surprising candidate.
A few weeks ago, De Bruyne announced that he would be ending his time as a Man City when his contract runs out at the conclusion of the current season. While it remains to be seen where he ends up, it will also be interesting to follow the soon-to-be-dethroned Premier League champions’ pursuit of his replacement.
Florian Wirtz is a player that has attracted strong interest in recent weeks, but now, it looks like Man City could look closer to home in their efforts to replace De Bruyne, who was in fine form during the 5-2 victory over Crystal Palace on Saturday.
