Manchester City fans in the Football Transfer Tavern have every right to be sanguine ahead of the 2017/18 Premier League campaign as Pep Guardiola has prepared his squad with reinforcements across the field. 

A position that our Sky Blues-mad barman demanded to be strengthened was the goalkeeper spot and the boss has ensured that has happened by splashing out the cash to bring in Ederson; which does cast doubt over the future of Claudio Bravo.

Nevertheless, it is slowly coming together at the Etihad Stadium and Guardiola will seemingly be aiming to have more arrivals through the doors between now and transfer deadline day.

However, the fans by the bar have been suggesting that the manager should utilise the excellent youth academy that he has at his disposal and more specifically he should make use of the youngsters that could definitely have an impact in Manchester City’s next twelve months.

So with that in mind, here are TWO wonderkids who may have an influential role to play in the club’s 2017/18 season….

Tosin Adarabioyo

Tosin Adarabioyo is just one of the several youthful prospects on the fringes of Pep Guardiola’s first-team and he could be introduced into senior football during the pre-season schedule.

The 19-year-old centre-back was given a lucrative deal quite recently to ensure his long-term future at the club, which just goes to show the fans in the Football Transfer Tavern can look forward to his services.

With Manchester City’s defensive woes of late, Adarabioyo could have a large influence on the backline for the good as they look to progress further in the Premier League and European football.

Gabriel Jesus

Gabriel Jesus, one of the rising talents in the modern game, is highly-rated across the globe and is now plying his trade in Manchester.

At just 20 years of age, Jesus has quickly won over our landlord having netted goals for fun during the latter stages of last season and he could very well carry that form on into next term.

The Brazilian is superb, there is no denying that, as he set to challenge Sergio Aguero for the number one choice up front and if he succeeds then his goals will massively change Manchester City’s fortunes in the 2017/18 campaign.

Manchester City supporters, would you think these two could have a large impact on next season’s success? Who will thrive under Pep Guardiola? Let us get your thoughts in the comment section below!
