BREAKING: Man City boss Pep Guardiola set to give Liverpool transfer green light for frustrated City player

It has been reported that a number of Premier League rivals are monitoring the situation regarding Manchester City midfielder Matheus Nunes, who has been linked with a swift exit from the club this summer.

Following the unexpected return of Ilkay Gundogan, Manchester City’s future with Matheus Nunes is uncertain, with Liverpool being one of the interested parties.

Gundogan returned to the English champions on a free transfer from Barcelona earlier this week, following an abrupt conclusion to his tenure at the Nou Camp within a year. Nunes may face difficulties as a result of this unexpected return, which could result in his descent further down the hierarchy.

Despite his £54 million transfer from Wolves to City last year, the Portuguese international has struggled to establish a presence under Pep Guardiola, making only 17 league appearances last season.

Newcastle has been monitoring his circumstances, as reported by the Daily Star. However, at this time, they are only able to provide him with a loan agreement. West Ham and Everton are currently monitoring developments, and Liverpool and Chelsea have previously expressed interest in the window. The most probable proposal is a loan offer and a £40m option to purchase.

The 25-year-old former Sporting star is dissatisfied with his lack of game time and would appreciate the chance to revitalise his career by joining another Premier League team, despite declining a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia. And, as evidenced by athletes such as Julian Alvarez, he will not obstruct those who wish to depart.

The Spanish manager recognises that he is unable to guarantee Nunes anything more than a limited role this season, a situation that has been exacerbated by the return of City’s captain, Gundogan, who won the Treble.

A number of players, such as Alvarez and Kalvin Phillips, have already left City this summer. Nunes and his compatriot Joao Cancelo are expected to be among those departing before the transfer window closes on Friday. Additional departures are anticipated.

The champions have been relatively silent in terms of incomings, with Savinho and Gundogan being the only other additions. This has not hindered the team’s impressive start to the season, which has included two victories in a row and the netting of six goals.

However, Guardiola has indicated that it is unlikely that any additional acquisitions will be made before the window closes on Friday, unless he is compelled to do so by injuries. “I am uncertain about the future; it is possible that injuries may occur (although I hope not), or the market may offer an unexpected opportunity that is financially advantageous or tactically advantageous.”

Rodri has yet to make his first appearance of the season following his Euro 2024 exploits, while Mateo Kovacic was limping out of the victory over Ipswich at The Etihad Stadium. Guardiola stated to KovacicL during the knock: “I did not consult with the physicians.” I believe it was a blow.

We are aware that Liam Delap is extremely aggressive with that, as we have observed from this location. We have six to seven days until the next game, and we will determine whether he is able to recuperate.

Liverpool is the sole team in Europe’s top five leagues that has not made a single transfer. Arne Slot is still awaiting the first arrival of the new era at Anfield. However, a midfielder may be pursued, as the pursuit of Martin Zubimendi was unsuccessful due to his decision to remain with Real Sociedad.
