CUCURELLA AND PHILLIPS, NOT HAALAND, WILL BE MANCHESTER CITY'S MOST CRUCIAL SIGNINGS.

Erling Haaland's deal to Manchester City is the most high-profile of the summer, but the team will profit even more if they can sign Marc Cucurella and Kalvin Phillips. 

Erling Haaland is a fantastic addition, but Marc Cucurella and Kalvin Phillips would be much better. 

It doesn't get much larger than one of the most sought-after players in the world joining the reigning Premier League champions, so Guardiola should be done with transfers. 

But, if reports are to be believed, the lavishly spending Spanish tactician isn't done yet, as Marc Cucurella and Kalvin Phillips appear to be on their way to the Etihad.

Although these two players do not have the star power of Haaland, other Premier League clubs should be more concerned about their arrival since they will eventually prove to be more valuable to the team.

Everyone knows what Erling Haaland brings to the table, which is an impressively unusual frequency of goal-scoring ability, especially for someone his age. His skill set will be extremely valuable to any team in the world. 

 

While his goals will be greatly appreciated and valuable to Manchester City, they do not require him; Haaland is a luxury purchase rather than a necessity.

Last season, Manchester City won the league and scored 99 goals, the most by any club, despite playing without a designated number nine for the duration of the season. 

This club can score goals from wherever on the field, which is a well-known truth, but the additions of Kalvin Phillips and Marc Cucurella are essential. 

City need to sign Kalvin Phillips because 37-year-old Fernandinho is on his way out following a nine-year tenure at the club, and Ilkay Gundogan is also said to be looking for a move away from the Etihad. 

 

For Leeds United, Kalvin Phillips has been a star performer.

Kalvin Phillips has made a name for himself.

 

Phillips, though, is more than just another midfield body; the highly-coveted English international is a stylistic fit for Manchester City and would be the ideal midfielder if it weren't for weaknesses in his passing, which Pep Guardiola would like to address.

 

Cucurella, on the other hand, impressed last season and was named Brighton's player of the year in his debut season at the club, and his abilities might be valuable to City in a position where they have been lacking for some time.

Oleksander Zinchenko has so far failed to impress, and Benjamin Mendy's legal problems have kept him out of the team, thus Joao Cancelo has been forced to play left-back despite being more at ease on the right. 

 

Cucurella's signing will address this issue and provide Pep Guardiola with a more stable rotation option, allowing Manchester City to become even more complete than they already are.
