  • Guardiola, desperate to bolster his defence in the January transfer window, has pinpointed the powerful centre back Musacchio as his primary transfer target.

Last summer signing John Stones has struggled since his move to City and Guardiola is considering dropping the England international for a while to allow the defender time to restore his confidence. Meanwhile, Musacchio has reported told his agent that he wants to move to England in the future and that could be a possibility in the transfer window that will slam shut on January 31st. 20
