If we sign one of them that would make sense. Seems a bit overkill, unless a few of our midfielders are leaving

That's a very high work rate / energy midfield. Bruno has a engine he's all over the place for Newcastle, Paqueta the same for West ham with the added creative quality

Smart move. If he doesn’t want to commit, then our transfer strategy would be different to if he does.
Also dangles that extension carrot out.
Assume that Bernardo will finally leave, and perhaps the thinking is that Kev may pick up more injuries. Kalvin will also have gone.
And as one is more a defensive midfield and the other attacking, it does make sense. We've certainly been light in midfield at times this season.
I think we could do Kimmich in addition to these two - neither Bruno or Paqueta play as a 6, whereas Kimmich offers that versatility at both the 6 and RB. It seems like we could have a very energetic midfield that could allow for a less athletic player such as Kimmich to come in and do a job at the 6 if Rodri needs a rest.

At least I got to watch, Merlin Kev and Colin , in my 60 years supporting City these two diving cheats would finish me.
The answer to Gundo, Kev, Bernie and Mahrez would be these two plus Kova and Doku.

Same. Walker has no reason to accept a Saudi offer while he’s still England and City’s starting RB and winning trophies every year. He’s City’s captain!
Even if next season was “one year too many” and his form fell off a cliff, the Saudis would still throw stupid money at him in 2025.
Walker will retire for the Internationals after the summer.
