Seems like if they lose both Diaz and Nunez, they'd need to add at striker. But that won't be cheap, and they've already spent a lot.
That said, until Father Time catches up with Mo, they'll be fine there.
Wirtz would have been a pretty perfect addition for City, but it looks like they are going to add three guys for the price of Wirtz.

…I need to also give them credit for opening up the wallet this offseason and really setting the team up for success the next 3-4 years. They saw an opening with City taking a step back, so credit to them for being aggressive when it is called for.
I think Wirtz gives them another superstar to build around as Salah ages and (likely) leaves in a couple of years. And assuming they sign Kerkez as well, as seems likely, they will be in a great spot for next year. And even better if they can sell Nunez and use that money for another striker that will hopefully work out better.
I’m still not entirely sure how Frimpong will fit in with the squad, but I assume Slot knows how that will work. And he’s definitely got some exceptional attributes. The only nitpick is the lack of depth in central defense. Hopefully they can at least find a mid-priced rotation piece there the way they did with Endo at the 6 a couple of years ago.

If I’m them, I throw the bag at Thomas Frank (Brentford).
