With his club now sitting fifth in the Premier League standings, 14 points behind league leaders Liverpool, Pep Guardiola is dealing with a problem he has never seen in his managerial career.
In addition, the Man City team was eliminated from the Carabao Cup and is now in danger of losing the Champions League.
Guardiola will probably launch a recruitment campaign during the January transfer window in an attempt to add younger players to his team.
One player who has been connected to City for a number of months is Martin Zubimendi, who will be lured to the Premier League team by the €60 million release clause in his Real Sociedad contract.
The Euro 2024 champion is also a big target for Liverpool, who lost out on the midfield player in the summer when Zubimendi chose to play another season in Spain.
The Merseyside club is currently seen to be behind in the competition for the Spanish international going into the next transfer window, reports Caught Offside.
