Nico Gonzalez, Rico Lewis, Tijjani Reijnders, Omar Marmoush, Mateo Kovacic, James Trafford and Nathan Ake are among those who could leave Manchester City this summer.
Josko Gvardiol is considering his options as he mulls a new contract offer from City as well as interest from Bayern Munich and Barcelona.
Ruben Dias has also been linked to Real Madrid, which may gather pace now that Florentino Perez will continue as president and bring in Jose Mourinho as the new manager.

£200m+ worth of signings in just over 12 months just shipped out. Marmoush is one of the highest paid players in the league, shipped barely a year later. Madness 😭
We just saw Arsenal win the Premier League and NEARLY win the Champions League because of their depth.
Havertz Gyökeres.
Saka, Madueke.
Eze, Ødegaard.
Calafiori, Hincapié.
Lewis-Skelly-Zubimendi.
Etc, etc.
In EVERY position.
Yet you want to sign back-ups.
NO.
Starters only!
Jeremy Monga to Arsenal is gathering pace but there is some 'grey' area around the finances involved. The teenager's first professional contract is scheduled to commence on 17th birthday (July 10).
As far as I'm aware, Arsenal will likely need to pay a fee for Monga due to the scheduled pro deal already signed at Leicester City. Finer details make this one to watch across next month. #LCFC
🚨@gunnerblog: Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta believe now is the time for Arsenal to capitalise on their success and recruit from a position of strength. 🔝🔴⚪️

🚨 Mikel Arteta has reportedly urged Arsenal executives to explore a move for Vinícius Júnior.

🗣️William Saliba on people who dislike #Arsenal’s style of play: “The first season that I arrived in 2022/23 we played incredible football. It is a year in which we deserved to win the title. People mocked us because we finished second. In the second season, too, we played well with the ball, and people mocked us – ‘bottle, bottle’. Last season, too, we played pretty well, even if we played less than in the two previous seasons, and we finished second.
“This season, even if I don’t agree with what other people say, as if we are a team that just goes long. We also play with the ball, even if, sometimes, we score a lot more than the other teams from set-pieces. It’s mad! And now, in the Premier League, everyone takes long throws, everyone takes corners, it’s just that we do it better than the others. That’s life, and we’ll continue like that.”
He is 100% right but the haters are not ready for the facts just yet 💯 🥱
