Manchester City’s affluent and ambitious Emirati owner Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nayhan has big plans for the summer.
The first target is Inter Milan coach Jose Mourinho, who made it recently clear that he misses England and English Premier League football. The Portuguese will almost certainly join the Citizens at the end of the season, also considering the fact that he is having a hard time dealing with the Italian media.
With Mourinho on board, City will try to sign the following top players between June and August 2010 :
Gianluigi Buffon (Juventus)
John Terry (Chelsea)
Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid)
Phillip Lahm and Franck Ribery (Bayern Munich)
Steven Gerrard (Liverpool)
Manchester City’s starting lineup may look something like this next season if Sheik Al Nahyan will make his dreams come true :
(4-3-3) : Buffon — S.Ramos, K.Toure’, Terry, Lahm — Gerrard, Barry, Ireland — Ribery, Adebayor, Tevez.
