Cityzens haven’t yet found the ideal replacement for Mahrez

Girona FC, a rising star in the world of football, is preparing for an influx of transfer offers as they make a bold push for the La Liga title in 2024. The Catalan side has been performing exceptionally well during the first half of the 2023/24 season, challenging established teams and shaking up the traditional order.

Despite their strong position at the start of 2024, Girona is bracing itself for potential transfer interest in its key players before the transfer window closes. This comes as no surprise given their impressive performance so far this season.

The club's link with Premier League champions Manchester City through City Football Group (CFG) could put them under pressure to funnel players to Etihad Stadium. This connection has previously been utilized by Manchester City to secure promising talent from clubs within CFG's portfolio.

The CFG ownership can pave way for Man City easily

The latest player rumored to be on his way from Catalonia to Manchester is Brazilian attacker Savio Moreira. According to reports, Moreira might be swapping his current home ground at Girona for Etihad Stadium following an incredible start at Girona.

Moreira has proven himself a crucial part of Girona's success so far in 2023/24 with five La Liga goals and five assists under his belt. His parent club Troyes' ownership by CFG could potentially facilitate a £10m deal that would see him move over to England.

If he continues his current trajectory and lives up to expectations in coming years, securing Moreira would indeed be a solid piece of business for Cityzens.

As we move further into 2024, it will be interesting watching how these potential transfers unfold and what impact they will have on Girona's title race. Regardless of the outcome, one thing is certain: Girona FC has made its mark on La Liga and is a team to watch in the future.
