Manchester City is already making moves following the imminent departure of Kevin De Bruyne, with two names standing out on the replacement list: Morgan Gibbs-White and Florian Wirtz, as reported by The Athletic. With the confirmed exit of the Belgian captain at the end of the season, Pep Guardiola's club begins to analyze options to fill a void that will mark the beginning of a new era at the Etihad Stadium.
Gibbs-White, the creative pillar of Nottingham Forest, has raised his level this season with consistent performances that have not gone unnoticed. At 25 years old, the English midfielder has been crucial for his team in both creation and finishing, even earning his debut with the national team. His ability to link lines and his dynamism in the final third of the field make him an interesting option in the Premier League.

On the other hand, Florian Wirtz has been one of the standout players of the season in . With Bayer Leverkusen unbeaten in the Bundesliga and champions of both the league and cup, the 21-year-old has been the offensive brain of Xabi Alonso's team. His skill, vision, and impressive numbers have attracted attention from European giants, with City closely monitoring him despite the high valuation set by his club.
The new sporting director of Manchester City, Hugo Viana, will play a key role in this decision, working alongside Guardiola to determine whether to directly reinforce De Bruyne's position or reconfigure the system with internal options like Phil Foden. Whatever the final decision, the club is preparing for a significant investment in its new footballing brain.
