Arsene Wenger suggests that despite Manchester City’s success in winning the Treble this season, the club will remain active in the summer transfer window. Manchester City made history by defeating Inter Milan 1-0 in the Champions League final. Thus, matching the feat of Manchester United’s 1999 team with securing the Champions League, Premier League, and FA Cup titles in the same season. The victory in Istanbul solidifies City’s remarkable achievements under Pep Guardiola’s leadership.
Despite their impressive achievements in recent seasons, Arsene Wenger believes that Manchester City cannot afford to become complacent or stagnant in their pursuit of success. While they dominated the Premier League, winning five of the last six titles, Wenger suggests that they should continue to evolve. Thereby, strengthen their squad in order to maintain their competitive edge and stay ahead of their rivals.
What does Wenger think about the new additions of Manchester City this season?
Manchester City’s acquisitions of Erling Haaland and Manuel Akanji from Borussia Dortmund have proven to be highly valuable for the club. Haaland’s goal-scoring prowess has been exceptional, finding the back of the net 52 times in 53 appearances across all competitions. Akanji, on the other hand, has provided stability and reliability to the team’s defensive line. Their contributions have undoubtedly played a significant role in Manchester City’s success this season.
According to Arsene Wenger, Manchester City stands out among their rivals in terms of utilizing their significant financial resources. Wenger commends the club for their intelligent, rational, and consistent approach to spending. He notes that City’s owners have demonstrated patience since acquiring the club in 2007. Thus, allowing the team to build gradually and strategically. Wenger’s praise highlights City’s ability to effectively leverage their financial power for long-term success.
Meanwhile, the Premier League is currently conducting an investigation into Manchester City. That is for a series of alleged financial fair play breaches. The investigation is said to cover a period spanning from the 2009/10 season to the 2017/18 campaign. With over 100 potential breaches being examined.
