đ¨ Official: Man City Release Squad for FIFA Club World Cup
Manchester City have officially released their 27-man squad for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, set to take place in the United States later this month. Manager Pep Guardiola has opted for a dynamic mix of established stars and emerging talents as City aim to capture their first global title.
The most surprising omissions are England internationals Jack Grealish and Kyle Walker, both of whom were left out of the squad. Their absences have sparked speculation regarding potential summer departures, particularly with transfer interest from Premier League and European clubs.
New signings have been integrated swiftly into the team, reflecting the clubâs aggressive summer transfer strategy. With over ÂŁ116 million spent in just 10 days, City are clearly in the midst of a squad refresh following a rare trophyless campaign in 2024â25.
