Maresca: There are things we need to do while the transfer window is open

Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed he expects further new arrivals during the summer transfer window. So far, the Citizens have bolstered their squad with Elliott Anderson, who joined in a record transfer from Nottingham Forest, young Jeremy Monga, signed from Leicester, and goalkeeper Piers Charles, who returned to the club after several years at Sheffield Wednesday.

“Fortunately, this is a team where not much needs to be done. At the same time, we know we’ve lost some important players like Bernardo Silva, John Stones, Nathan Aké… Of course, there are things we need to address. Hugo Viana and Ferran Soriano are here. We try to speak every day. We communicate regularly. Of course, there are things we need to do. When the transfer window is open, anything can happen. It’s August now, by September everything will be different,” Maresca stated.

The Italian also spoke about the upcoming matches against the K-League All-Stars and Atlético Madrid.

“Both games are very important for us, regardless of the opponent. Match after match, we want to see the team getting better and better. Of course, we want to try and win games, that’s the main thing, but at the same time, we need to see the team improving day by day.”
