City defence set to be bolstered
Manchester City’s defensive crisis is set for a boost with new signing Marc Guehi poised for a weekend debut.
Guehi has finally been unveiled as a City player after completing his £20m switch from Crystal Palace.
And the England ace seems likely to go straight into Pep Guardiola’s back four at home to Wolves on Saturday after City’s last two available centre-backs, Max Alleyne and Abdukodir Khusanov, were given the runaround in Saturday’s 2-0 loss at Manchester United.
“I cannot wait to get started and show fans what I can do,” said Guehi, City’s second big-money move of the transfer window following Antoine Semenyo’s £60m move from Bournemouth.
City, who have won two of their last six in all competitions and lost ground to Arsenal in the title race, are currently missing Dias, Gvardiol and Stones due to injuries.
