14 | Nico Gonzalez - 2025/26

Question for Tolmie or anybody with connections to the club ?
Any truth in Gonzalez future at the club already in doubt .
Pg not impressed with him & city would be open for him to be sold .

Understandable rumour considering how little game time he gets.

It would still surprise me at this early stage for him at City, but it probably depends on what interest there is also.
 
Read it before story by Darren Looney lol!
Manchester City News\
Esteemed Kompany reporting same .

Be extremely short sighted to sell him after what we’ve seen he’s capable of and he’s 23. Especially more so after the time Rodri was given to settle and figure the role out.

You could tell early on Rodri had something, he was technically good, in my opinion I’ve seen the same with Nico. Not saying he’ll be as good as Rodri is but he’s got the building blocks to be a very good mid.

If Pep isn't using him and is still using Gundogan as cover and have added Reijnders it is probably for the best to cash in now despite his qualities. Still have to cut a couple more players along with the other out of favour players.

When is he going to get a chance?
 
he might have got a bit closer than Gundo when Al Hilal scored their winner - his last jog for us I reckon.
I am not so sure it is. He still favoured Gundo during last season's run in and going off his comments during the CWC he still content to stick around for one more season. Will get more money for Gonzalez

But that still leaves a huge hole if Rodri is out as gundo is done and What happens when he leaves in a year? I’m just surpised at Pep not giving him a chance I suppose as he’s been the closest thing to Rodri we’ve seen in a while
 
It's a joke if this lad gets sold or loaned out. If there's any truth in the rumour, it's another very clear indication of a possible breakdown in the link between Viana and Guardiola.

Gonzalez and Khusanov should have been guaranteed appearances in the Mickey Mouse World Cup, but Pep seems to have forgotten about them when picking his old favourites.

Viana needs to put his foot down.

Same with Kalvin Phillips probably hasn't really clicked with Pep. If Nypan is on his way he'll may be given an opportunity.

Well, he's becoming the closest thing we've seen to Phillips.....

Seriously though, I wish I knew what the reason was. I've not been all that impressed with him in terms of scanning and awareness, with loose touches happening a bit too often as a result. However, that could just be adapting to the PL and to City. If it is to do with that you'd expect scouts - and Pep - to notice it before signing him. Maybe they did but thought he'd make progress and he hasn't? Maybe his attitude isnt right? No idea really. Big disappointment though one way or another.

Phillips was clearly never good enough and had a huge inferiority complex. Nypan has no chance of playung first team next season and he doesnt even play that role.

I agree with a lot there. He has developing to do, no question, but he’s 23. He’s shown enough in games to show he has a lot of potential. Its a lot like when we first got Rodri which is why I’m surprised at Peps complete disregard for him.

Cant speak to attitude as we dont get to see that side but talent wise I think he can become a useful player

It is a bit odd definitely. He's at the point now where it feels like he'll only get better for us by playing, and it might take a couple of injuries for that to happen. If he's patient I could see him getting a chance this season at some point, but I could also understand if we accept a decent offer.
