They have to do that to get the players they want but I think what Manchester City does is always worth it, Pep Guardiola has spent a lot of money to build the Manchester City team in the last few seasons even since his arrival but we can also see how the performance of the Manchester City team is growing and the evidence of the trophies that have been presented in the Manchester City team cabinet, so spending a lot of money to build a great team like Manchester City is quite worth it.
Yeah, Guardiola is not just throwing money for fun. After ending a trophyless season, I will call it a strategic rebuild.
If I recall correctly, they already spent over 340M this summer to boost their key area with Reijnders, Cherki, Aït‑Nouri, Bettinelli, and many more. Guardiola also trying to depart some veterans like De Bruyne, Stones, Walker to reset the squad at top level and reclaim dominance in England and Europe. If Guardiola can rebuild the squad with the players he likes, then I believe that City will be back on track next season. So bookies and bettors should keep an eye on how quickly new signings click and big names depart.
