Manchester City Adjusts January Transfer Plans: Three Out, Five In Consideration
Manchester City has shifted its focus for the January transfer window, ruling out moves for midfielders Martin Zubimendi (Real Sociedad), Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle), and Pablo Barrios (Atletico Madrid). Despite their urgent need for a central midfielder following Rodri’s injury, City considers these targets unattainable during the winter window, according to Daily Mail.

Instead, City has turned its attention to alternative options. Among the potential midfield reinforcements are Joshua Kimmich (Bayern Munich), Ederson (Atalanta), and Adam Wharton (Crystal Palace). The club is carefully weighing its options to address the void in midfield without overpaying or compromising long-term plans.
City is also exploring attacking reinforcements, with Omar Marmoush (Eintracht Frankfurt) and Jonathan David (Lille) reportedly on their radar. However, sources suggest that a move for a forward in January is less likely, with the club prioritizing other areas.
