Manchester City's summer cleaning is in progress: Gallish may leave the team for £40 million, and the Blue Moon starts reconstruction

According to the Manchester Evening News, Manchester City is preparing to sell Jack Gallish in the upcoming summer transfer window in order to raise funds for the team's reconstruction. The 29-year-old winger has not performed well in the past season, with Manchester City priced him about £40 million, a price considered relatively high, considering his performance on the field.

Gallish performed poorly and has become doubtful in the future. In the 2024-25 Premier League season, Gallish only played 20 times, scored 1 goal and contributed 1 assist. Worse, he wasn't even selected to Manchester City for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup squad, although head coach Guardiola emphasized that it has nothing to do with the players' attitudes.

Manchester City hopes to increase the club's transfer budget by selling Galish, especially after such an unsatisfactory season - not only did they lose their Premier League title position and were surpassed by Liverpool, but also lost to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final.

According to analysis, if Gralish leaves the Etihad Stadium, Naples and Tottenham Hotspur are the most likely destinations. Naples wants to strengthen its offensive line, while Tottenham regards Gralish as a key puzzle that is experienced and can help the team achieve better results in the Champions League.

Before this, Manchester City had sold Kyle Walker to Burnley for about £5 million. In addition, it is possible that Calvin Phillips, Ilkay Gundogan and even Matteo Kovacich will leave after receiving the right offer. Manchester City hopes that through these adjustments, they can regain their competitiveness and return to their peak in the new season.
