In recent times, Manchester City is by far the most successful team in England.

Under Pep Guardiola, the Citizens became only the second English team to win the coveted treble after Manchester United.

Also, they made history by winning the Premier League 4 years in a row.

But, the recently concluded season has been nothing short of a disaster for Pep Guardiola’s team.

They secured a UEFA Champions League spot on the final day after defeating Fulham.

But, you expect Man City to win trophies and after many years, they failed to win a trophy this season.

Also, key players such as Kyle Walker and Kevin De Bruyne are on their way out of the club.

So, Pep Guardiola will be looking for replacements in the market.

Now, Manchester City are known for making smart decisions in the transfer market.

They have signed many amazing players who have contributed greatly to their recent success.

Now, Pep Guardiola wants to sign a left-back because City lack depth in that position.

But, the Spanish manager wants stability for the upcoming season.

Also, he wants to sign a left-back before the FIFA Club World Cup because that is the trophy Manchester City can still win this season.

So, he has identified a Premier League-proven left-back who could prove to be a crucial signing for the Citizens.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Manchester City has enquired about the conditions to sign Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves.

The 23-year-old has been fantastic for Wolves last season. In 37 Premier League games, the Algerian international has provided 7 assists and also scored 4 times.

Pep wants a left-back who can be lethal going forward as well. And, Rayan Ait-Nouri ticks almost all the boxes that Pep desires from his left-backs.

So, Manchester City are seriously considering signing Rayan Ait-Nouri from Wolves this season.
