Manchester City will consider signing an alternative left-back in the summer despite Benjamin Mendy’s imminent return from injury, manager Pep Guardiola has said.
France international Mendy, signed from Monaco for £49.1million in 2017, has missed large spells of both seasons he has been at the club with knee problems.
“We survived well last season, this season too, but we are thinking about that,” Guardiola said.
“I cannot assure you – as I’m delighted with the players I have – but at the end of the season we are going to decide. We are going to look at both options on the table.”
