Last season, Manchester United won the FA Cup final against Manchester City. In the autumn, Pep Guardiola excused that the players went into the final with continued celebration after the Premier League title in their head and legs. On Saturday, City suffered another FA Cup defeat, this time against Crystal Palace. This time, there was definitely no celebration that ruined the finals form. Manchester City need reinforcements, especially in midfield. It is reported that the club has set aside £180 million for two players.
With departure for the Club World Cup and the first leg on June 18, this is just the time and the way for Manchester City. According to The Mirror, City are willing to fork out an additional £180 million to secure two players at the beginning of June.

The Telegraph claims Milan have set a price tag of the equivalent of £57 million for the Dutch international.
Manchester City’s last opportunity to end the season with a title is in the Club World Cup with its giant payouts and $40 million to the winner.
