Manchester City head coach Enzo Maresca says he will decide on the club’s leadership group at the end of the transfer window. The decision is linked to uncertainty about how the final make-up of his squad will look, rather than being made immediately.
Multiple reports indicate changes are already under way in the current leadership set. Last season’s captain, Bernardo Silva, has left the club. The reports also say Rodri could depart for Barcelona as negotiations continue, which would affect who remains from the previous leadership group. With those potential exits, only Ruben Dias and Erling Haaland are described as likely to stay from the earlier leaders.
The articles frame the approach as a practical response to transfer-window volatility: Maresca waits to confirm which senior players are available before naming the final leadership structure for the season. Different outlets focus on varying details of the departures and their implications, but they align on the timing and the reasons behind the decision.
