3 midfielders Manchester City should look to sign in January

Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City got back to winnings ways in the Premier League by thumping West Brom 4-0 on Saturday.

Sergio Aguero, whose future at City has been called into question after he was left out of the starting eleven versus Barcelona two weeks ago, netted a brace as did the excellent Ilkay Gundogan in a dominant performance at the Hawthorns.

Guardiola’s men had failed to win any of their previous six matches prior to the West Brom win, which included a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham and a 4-0 hammering at the hands of Guardiola’s former employers Barcelona.

However, their impressive victory in the Midlands on Saturday means that City retain their place at the top of the Premier League ahead of Arsenal and Liverpool, both of whom also won convincingly at the weekend.

Nevertheless, City’s disappointing run of form has increased speculation about who Guardiola might add to his squad when the transfer window reopens in January, so that they are capable of competing on both the domestic and European stage.

So, here are THREE midfielders City may look to sign in January…
