It was quite a surprise to see Jesus Navas stay at Manchester City even after the appointment of Pep Guardiola. The Spaniard was nothing more than an impact sub under Manuel Pellegrini and his role has been severely limited this campaign as well. Now aged 31, Navas would definitely like some more playing time and leaving Manchester City is the only way he can get that.
The Spaniard is surplus to requirements at the Etihad with Sane, Sterling, De Bruyne, Silva and Nolito all available at Pep’s disposal. Young Patrick Roberts is also scheduled for a return to the club after his impressive loan spell with Celtic. So, all things added up, it looks like this will be the speedy winger’s final season at Manchester City.

Snehanjan is a journalist at Sportskeeda covering European football news. A hardcore Liverpool fan for over two decades, he has been covering the game since the past 8 years and always strives to give readers relevant, accurate and credible content.
Snehanjan developed an interest in football at a very young age, thanks to his father watching football on TV. His favorite player is club legend Steven Gerrard and his favorite manager is another legend in Jurgen Klopp. The ‘Miracle of Istanbul’ i.e., Liverpool beating AC Milan in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final left an indelible mark on him. He believes that Liverpool is a family unlike other top clubs, which sets them apart.
Snehanjan also follows Indian Super League and the I-League, although the latter is closer to his heart. If he could change a rule in football, it would be VAR not pointing out mistakes of on-field officials unless they are clear and obvious errors. Outside the football world, Snehanjan likes to explore the various genres of music and watch movies and shows on OTT. He’s also a car enthusiast and likes to follow the automobile world.
