Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola seemed a bit touchy when asked about Jack Grealish following Manchester City’s victory over Fulham, securing Champions League football for next season. Guardiola shared his thoughts on the club’s summer transfer plans and insisted that there won’t be a major overhaul of the squad, despite his preference for working with a smaller group of players.

In a heated press conference after the win against Fulham, Guardiola implied that Grealish may need to seek opportunities at another club if he is unable to secure regular playing time at Etihad. When pressed further on his feelings towards Grealish, Guardiola defended his decisions on the six players he has to exclude from his squad for each match. Attempting to shift the focus away from Grealish, Guardiola responded to further questions about the player by simply saying, “Next one,” as the discussion turned to the club’s plans for summer transfers.

Guardiola expressed uncertainty about the possibility of a summer overhaul, stating that the club would ultimately make the decisions. While acknowledging the potential for new faces in areas where they may be weaker, Guardiola highlighted the current strength of the squad with most players under contract and expressing a preference for a smaller squad size. Reflecting on the end of his first season at City, Guardiola contrasted the situation then when many players were out of contract with the current scenario where only Kevin De Bruyne and Scott Carson have deals expiring next month.

The newly released 2025/26 Manchester City home kit features a reimagined sash running through the traditional City blue, marking the first time the shirt will incorporate a white sash. Puma has put a modern twist on a classic design, adding a fresh element to the iconic City kit for the upcoming season. As Manchester City fans eagerly anticipate the team’s performance in the Champions League and look forward to potential summer transfers, the unveiling of the new home kit adds to the excitement surrounding the club’s future.

Not really sure why this matters, but it seems like Guardiola is quite content with the current squad and is not anticipating a major shakeup in the upcoming transfer window. Maybe it’s just me, but it feels like the focus is more on maintaining the existing team dynamics rather than making significant changes. With the release of the new home kit, fans have something to look forward to as they gear up to support City in the next season. Pep Guardiola’s approach to squad management and his comments on potential transfers offer insights into the club’s strategy moving forward.
