6 Signings the Premier League top-6 teams should make

#1 Manchester City

Mahrez makes Manchester City even better

Manchester City romped home to the PL title in 2018 and it wasn't even close. Champions in most leagues who win the league by 19 points don't need to change too much.

But this is the Premier League we are talking about and not once since 2009 has a PL Champion managed to retain the title in the following year.

Manchester City have not stopped in their quest to improve and have added 2 new signings -

1. Riyad Mahrez (RW) (£61.02M from Leicester City)
2. Phillipe Sandler (CB) (£2.25 from PEC Zwolle)

City seem like the early title favorites heading into the new season and they would be forgiven for not adding any more talent. But if they wish to lock it up they should look towards replacing Fernandinho and Yaya Toure in the long run.

Adrien Rabiot to Barca seems to be getting derailed due to the spoiled relations post the Neymar move and Machester City should be wise enough to hijack the deal and get a long term replacement for Fernandinho, who is on the last leg of his career.

Another alternative might be in the form of the all-action midfielder, Arturo Vidal who is reportedly available and has already played under Pep, drastically reducing the adjustment period to the new club if he makes the move.
