🚨Manchester City identify TWO strikers from Paris Saint-Germain and Brighton as potential back-ups for Erling Haaland in the January transfer window

Manchester City officials are actively identifying potential strikers for the upcoming January transfer window as part of their broader squad rebuild planned for 2025. The club’s recent poor form, with just one victory in their last 11 matches, highlights the urgent need for fresh talent to support Pep Guardiola’s squad. Currently, City sits fifth in the Premier League and has struggled in the UEFA Champions League, where they are placed 22nd in their group.

One area that was notably overlooked in the last summer transfer window was the support striker role for Erling Haaland, particularly after Julian Alvarez’s departure to Atletico Madrid. This has placed significant pressure on Haaland, who has been starting consistently without adequate rest.

Reports indicate that City is showing “genuine interest” in Randal Kolo Muani, who has found himself sidelined at Paris Saint-Germain. Informal contacts have already been made through intermediaries, and Guardiola recognizes that few players of Kolo Muani’s caliber will be available in January. The club is likely prioritizing a loan deal for him while also considering midfield reinforcements first.

Additionally, Brighton’s Evan Ferguson is also on City’s radar despite initial concerns regarding his fitness and injury history. Guardiola has previously expressed that injuries have limited his options for a false-nine role, emphasizing Haaland’s critical importance to the team.

As City prepares to face Aston Villa in their next Premier League match, they will be looking to end their disappointing run of results, particularly after a recent derby loss to Manchester United.
