Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has hinted that the club may enter the transfer market for a new striker before the window closes.
Speaking at a press conference, Guardiola addressed concerns about the depth of his squad, particularly in the forward position, where Erling Haaland has been the focal point.
“We will see until the end of the market if we really need a striker to be a back-up for Erling,” Guardiola said, acknowledging the possibility of adding another attacking option.
“Erling is not going to play all the games with the schedule we have ahead of us, so you have to think about it.”
With a packed fixture list that includes Premier League, Champions League, and domestic cup commitments, Guardiola’s comments reflect the need for squad rotation and depth.
Haaland, who has been instrumental in City’s success since his arrival, could face fatigue if overburdened throughout the season.
The speculation comes as City continues to monitor the market for potential signings. Guardiola, known for his tactical acumen, will likely consider various options to ensure his squad remains competitive on all fronts.
City fans will be eagerly awaiting any developments as the transfer window draws to a close, hoping that any new addition can complement Haaland and bolster the team’s attacking prowess.
