Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is planning to sell up to eight players this summer as he looks to rebuild his squad.
According to The Sun, Jack Grealish is at the top of the list of players Guardiola is ready to let go before next season.
Other big names that could leave include Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva, John Stones, Mateo Kovacic, Ilkay Gundogan, and Ederson.
Additionally, Kyle Walker, who is currently on loan at AC Milan, is expected to leave permanently.
Guardiola wants to refresh the squad after a disappointing Premier League title defense and an early Champions League exit.
Since arriving at Manchester City in 2016, Guardiola has built one of the most dominant teams in English football history. However, the core group of players who brought him success is now aging and could be broken up.
All the players on the potential exit list are 30 years or older, except Grealish, who turns 30 in September.
Manchester City has already started making changes, signing four players under 26 in January, but it seems the club still has a lot more work to do.
