Guardiola will bring a new central defender in January.
Manchester City manager Josep Guardiola intends to bring in a new central defender in January - informs The Sun.
The Champions of England will have to do without Aymeric Laporte by the end of the year. The Frenchman suffered a serious knee injury and had to undergo surgery. Now he is waiting for a 4-month break in the game.
In the summer Manchester City made efforts to bring the England representative Harry Maguire, who eventually went to Manchester United for £ 85 million. As a result, no new central defender joined the team of England champions.
Manager Josep Guardiola wanted to wait with the purchase of a new player for this position until the summer of next year, but Laporte's injury will probably cause that plans in this matter will be accelerated.
Currently, there are only 2 experienced central defenders at the disposal of the Spanish coach - John Stones and Nicolas Otamendi. There are many indications that, if necessary, Fernandinho and Kyle Walker will also appear in the middle of Manchester City's defense soon.
