**Hugo Viana has had a busy opening transfer window as the sporting director of Manchester City, having succeeded Txiki Begiristain in the role.**
It has been a crucial summer for those in decision making positions at the Etihad Stadium, as City look to get their playing squad back to a top-level competitive standard following struggles throughout the last campaign.
Having scraped into the UEFA Champions League via a third-placed finish at the end of a largely torrid Premier League season in 2024/25, City have been able to conduct their business without too much in the way of complication.
In defence, there has been recruitment in the goalkeeping position while the back-four and particularly full-back has been addressed, as central midfield was bolstered alongside the attacking and creative ranks.
As for outgoings, and given Pep Guardiola’s constant public insistence that he prefers to work with a smaller group, City have been working intensely to thin their squad through temporary agreements and permanent deals for long-standing figures in their squad.
