Manchester City’s January squad revamp could lead to a loan move for former midfielder Douglas Luiz.

The Premier League champions hit top form in Sunday’s 6-0 win over Ipswich Town. Suggesting their recent struggles may be a thing of the past.

Injuries to a number of key players เล่นบาคาร่า UFABET เว็บตรง ค่าคอมสูง have disrupted City’s season, leading to the club’s worst-ever run of results under Guardiola. The main absence has been in central midfield. Where Ballon d’Or winner Rodri has been missing since tearing his ACL in September.
