Manchester City have defined the hiring of a central striker as a priority for the new season, but the process is not easy. Pep Guardiola himself came to the terreiro to complain about the high price that the clubs are asking for.
«With the prices you are asking, we are not going to hire any advanced. We cannot afford it. All clubs are in a bad financial situation and we are no exception», said the coach, speaking to TV3 station.
Harry Kane (Tottenham) and Erling Haaland (Borussia Dortmund) were some of the targets aimed at citizens, players who cost over 100 million euros.
Guardiola now seems resigned, remembering: «We have Gabriel [Jesus] and Ferran [Torres], who have played well in that position. And we can play with fake 9, as it already happened.»
