City Chief

City’s transfer window has been painfully boring for over a month now. No genuine moves, just gossip and recycled headlines. Still no new right-back.

Pep 🩵

Have we announced a new right-back yet? At least we got rid of Kyle Walker and made £5m out of it — that’s progress! 🤭

Thomas Partey should never have been on the pitch. Rodri suffered an injury last season after this reckless tackle, and yet Partey continued playing while under serious allegations. Arsenal and Arteta knew. And they protected him. Absolutely shameful. 👎

🚨| Burnley are closing in on the shock signing of Kyle Walker! 🩺 The 35-year-old is undergoing a medical ahead of a permanent move. 📄 2-year deal. 💰 Worth up to £5M to #ManCity (incl. bonuses) 💸 City also set to save ~£10M in wages. [@David_Ornstein]

RIP Muhannad al-Lili 🩵🤲🏻🩵 Inna lillāhi wa inna ilayhi rājiʿūn

Rest in peace, Diogo Jota. Gone too soon. Thoughts and prayers with his family, and teammates. 🙏🇵🇹

Savinho had to bury this! That’s the kind of chance you can’t miss if you want to start for Man City. Finishing must improve — we can’t afford another season of poor end product.

🧤 Ederson was our worst player in the Club World Cup. We needed him to make saves — instead, the only save he made led straight to a goal and the Al Hilal winner. Should City be looking at a proper shot-stopper this summer?

The only positive from our Club World Cup exit: Players now get 3-4 weeks off before returning for pre-season. Hopefully Rodri’s injury isn’t serious and he’s back later this month. We need him ready.

Losing 4-3 to Al Hilal and getting knocked out is a disgrace. Once again, Ederson, Dias and Akanji were shambolic at the back. Remember Akanji didn’t even want to be there – and still played in all the games.

🚨 #ManCity will take on Fluminense in the #FIFACWC quarter-finals — if they get past Al Hilal tonight! 🔵⚔️ Inter Milan have been knocked out! ❌🇮🇹 The route to the final just opened up a bit… 👀

#ManCity won’t receive any profit from Jamie Bynoe-Gittens’ move to Chelsea, as there was no sell-on clause included when he joined Dortmund in 2020. [@spbajko]

Congratulations to @JamesMcatee6 – 2025 #U21EURO Champion with England! 🦁🏆
