Manchester City have already secured their biggest signing of the summer transfer window. Elliot Anderson is officially a Blue after completing a £116m move from Nottingham Forest.
There is plenty more work to do for Hugo Viana and the potential for the squad to look significantly different for a second successive summer. City are looking for another midfielder as well as a right-back and winger to give new boss Enzo Maresca what he needs to succeed.
Nathan Ake was the latest player to exit the Etihad when his move to Fenerbahce was confirmed on Saturday, and is one of three centre-backs that have secured permanent deals so far. Savinho, Rico Lewis and Nico Gonzalez are among other players who could depart.
Here is a list of all the players that have been confirmed as completing a move either to or from City so far this summer.
