Pep Guardiola’s Citizens will not defend last season’s sensational Treble after crashing out of the Champions League to Real Madrid on penalties.

And there could be a real changing of the guard this summer with Spanish outlet Nacional claiming five stars are keen to leave.

Grealish tops the list and it is reported that there are a host of Premier League clubs desperate to land the England international.

Kalvin Phillips – currently on loan at West Ham – is another who is set to depart, with Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich touted as potential destinations for the 28-year-old.

Bernardo Silva, 29, is also believed to be considering his future amid interest from European heavyweights Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

Kevin De Bruyne is out of contract in 2025 – as is Guardiola – and the Belgian, 32, has been linked with a mega-money Saudi Pro League switch.

Back-up keeper Stefan Ortega, 31, could also look elsewhere in a bid to feature more regularly.

SunSport have exclusively revealed that Cole Palmer’s City exit last summer almost saw him move to the other side of London.

On why Guardiola decided to allow the starlet to leave, Brady wrote: “Financial rules on allowable losses may have played a part in the decision but, still, from all the newsreels I have seen, Cole is as cool a dude in front of goal as Jimmy Greaves himself.

“Which is probably why David Moyes tried very hard to sign him. We even had a deal agreed with City until Chelsea swooped.”
