4 players Manchester City should sell this summer

#2 Claudio Bravo

Claudio Bravo

Claudio Bravo was one of the first players Pep Guardiola turned to when he became the manager at Manchester City. The Chilean had been Barcelona's first-choice 'keeper for several years and had garnered a lot of respect and admiration.

Bravo was brought in to replace Joe Hart at Man City in 2016. However, things quickly turned sour as Bravo made blunder after blunder in his first few games. Almost all faith in him had been lost by the tenth game and Guardiola had begun to rue his hasty decision. Ultimately, Bravo would finish the season having played a respectable total of 32 games. But this would prove to be his last season as a prominent player for the Cityzens.

Ederson was signed at the start of the 2017-18 season and immediately became the new first choice, which saw Bravo drop to the bench. By the end of the season, Bravo had featured in a grand total of 4 games, which has essentially marked the end of his time at City.

Without a doubt, Pep Guardiola will be looking to offload the Chilean to the first club that meets his valuation this summer.

Where might Claudio Bravo go?

Manchester Evening News reported in May that PSG were looking to bring him in, but whether he would be first-choice there is also questionable.

However, Claudio Bravo was asked about whether he would consider a move away from City in December, and he said this to say: "Life is not only about football, life involves a lot more. I have a family to consider. They are living in Manchester, we are thrilled that the kids are learning the language to perfection."

This could mean that Bravo might stay put, but ultimately the decision lies with the club as to whether they should want to offload the 35-year-old or have him warm the bench for another year or two.
