Manchester City look best-placed to compete with Liverpool for the Premier League title next season, considering the signings Pep Guardiola’s men have already made coupled with Arsenal’s lack of summer business.
After the FIFA Club World Cup, Manchester City could make more signings and if they do, that could further boost their chances of potentially dethroning Arne Slot’s side as the champions of England.
Rayan Cherki has impressed Pep Guardiola already, while both Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Ait-Nouri have looked like instant fits in his system during the Club World Cup as well.
However, Liverpool have signed the likes of Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez as their summer business is comparable to City’s.
Man City think they can sign Newcastle right-back Tino Livramento
Tino Livramento is a player who Manchester City have remained interested in signing but so far, no signs have suggested that a move is set to take place.
Manchester City are huge fans of Livramento as they deem the Englishman as the perfect successor to Kyle Walker, who is set to leave the Etihad Stadium in the summer.
GiveMeSport have reported that despite Newcastle United’s “not for sale” stance regarding the 22-year-old, City believe they can prise him away from St. James’ Park.
Manchester City are waiting to sign Livramento and the Sky Blues feel they are already turning his head.
The former Chelsea wonderkid is at the summit of a four-man shortlist to bolster the right-back position at City, with Pep Guardiola keen to add more bodies to his squad before the start of next season.
How Newcastle privately feel about Tino Livramento’s future
The report mentions that only time will tell when Manchester City submit a bid to sign Livramento, who has just won the U-21 European Championship alongside James McAtee.

Newcastle are “confident” that the youngster is happy with life under Eddie Howe and has full faith in their project.
However, Manchester City fans have every reason to be excited about the club’s chances of signing Livramento based on how much they seem to believe that a move could be on the cards.
