According to German Bild, Manchester City has developed a strong interest in 29-year-old goalkeeper Zetel who plays for Bremen. They believe that Zetel will become the team's goalkeeper guarantee next season, just like Diogo Costa, which also announces that Manchester United is very likely to bid farewell to the two main and vice goalkeepers next season.

In fact, since Manchester City officially announced that it would not renew the contract at the beginning of the year this month, a team's purge has been quietly underway.

The biggest thing is the goalkeeper position. The 31-year-old Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson and 32-year-old German goalkeeper Ortega are likely to leave Manchester City together after the end of the season.

Ederson's whereabouts are relatively clear. The Jeddah United of Sands has been attacking him. After playing for Manchester City for 10 years, the Brazilian has won all the honors in the club field in the European arena and is also open to leaving.

As for Ortega's whereabouts may be Leverkusen, the current Finnish 35-year-old goalkeeper Hradetsky of the pharmaceutical factory has performed extremely unreliable this season. They hope to have an experienced player who can bring 24-year-old Czech goalkeeper Kovaz, and Ortega is undoubtedly the right person.

In addition to De Bruyne and the two goalkeepers, the two former England internationals were also in the cleaning ranks of Manchester City.

Gallish will inevitably leave. Since joining Manchester United from Villa for 100 million, Gallish has appeared in the media more because he went to bars or participated in fashion events and some emotional scandals. As for his performance on the stadium, it is hard to describe.

Because of Gallish's high salary, Manchester City is even willing to let him leave freely. Tottenham Hotspur is said to be very interested in Gallish. As his team captain Son Heung-min gradually declines in his age performance, it is a reasonable consideration for Tottenham.

Another person on the verge of leaving the team is Stones, who has put on hold on to negotiate a contract extension with the 30-year-old England international making more mistakes in the last two seasons. Manchester City prefers to make Dias, Aker, Guvadior, Husanov, Akanji and others form the backbone of the team's defense, and the last position is to give Rees, a young Brazilian post who was introduced from Palmeiras this season.

If a suitable offer is made, it is undoubtedly acceptable for Manchester City to let Stones go. Similar to Stones, there are midfielder Bernard Silva and veteran Kovacic.

The former has basically said goodbye to the team. This season he played at Manchester City and had no fighting spirit. It seems that after that six-time champion, B-team lost the desire to continue pursuing honor at Manchester City.

As for Kovacic, his departure was due to the rapid rise of Manchester City young player O'Reilly. After joining Manchester City from Chelsea, Kovacic was diligent and his attitude was praised.

Unfortunately, Nico O'Reilly this season is eye-catching. His tall height in 193 provides Manchester City with a powerful threat to back-spin. He scored 5 goals in 11 starts.

The other two positions in Manchester City's midfield are, one must belong to Rodri and the other belong to the organizer attributes, so Kovacic seems quite embarrassing after O'Reilly's rise.

For the former Premier League overlord Manchester City, if you want to regain your past dominance, a major cleanup within the team this summer is inevitable.

Even if he is a six-time champion, if he just wants to be moldy on the credit book, it will not be acceptable to Manchester City.
