Manchester City are now ready to sell their ‘special’ 21-year-old youngster to a Premier League Rival for £50m this summer
Manchester City is reportedly ready to trade one of its young talents.
Manchester City’s summer business has grown significantly in recent years as a result of the young players it has sold. Pep Guardiola’s team has sold excellent young players such as Cole Palmer, James Trafford, Romeo Lavia, and Gavin Bazunu in recent years.
Man City are preparing to sell a “unique” 21-year-old this summer.
In most situations, their choices to release such players had little impact on the first team’s performance.
Furthermore, the young players in question have had the opportunity to play senior football abroad, and in some cases, they have gone on to become household names.
Cole Palmer stands out, and Romeo Lavia will join Chelsea in the summer of 2023.

According to The Sun (09/06/2024, page 55), Manchester City is looking to trade 21-year-old Liam Delap. According to reports, City plans to trade Delap to an unknown Premier League team.
According to the article, City’s principal objective for selling the Winchester-born striker is to address their ongoing troubles with the Profit and Sustainability Rules.
Delap, called as “exceptional” by Guardiola via Manchester Evening News, is a homegrown player, hence any possible transfer would be considered pure profit under the current PSR regulations.
Manchester City will hope they do not regret selling Liam Delap.
While Manchester City may need to sell Liam Delap for commercial reasons, we believe they will hope they do not regret the decision.
In his limited outings for City, Delap demonstrated his class, most notably scoring in a 2-1 Carabao Cup win over Bournemouth.
However, the former Derby County striker has struggled to make an impression during loan spells at Stoke City, Preston North End, and Hull City.
However, given Liam Delap’s eye for goal, strength, and determination, he might establish his worth at a Premier League team.
Manchester City is regarded for having a keen eye for potential, so perhaps they are comfortable dumping Delap.
