Man City are planning to rebuild after this season. It has already succeeded in reinforcing by recruiting Omar Marmushi and Abdukodir Husanov last winter, and plans are underway in the summer transfer market by starting negotiations with recruitment candidates such as Rayan Cherki.
In the defense, Aitnuri emerged as Hoover. Algerian full-back Aitnuri moved to Wolverhampton on loan in 2020 and began his full-fledged performance in the EPL. Aitnuri, who later completely transferred to Wolverhampton, was considered one of the most aggressive defenders in the EPL due to his fast speed, overlapping and stable dribbling. Aitnuri's aggressive defense and breakthrough are being used as Wolverhampton's main strategy. Last season, he led the left attack with Hwang Hee-chan and played a lot of games. This season, he also played a key role as Wolverhampton's main defender.

Tottenham was initially known to be active in recruiting Aitnuri. For Tottenham, Destiny Udogi was injured and sluggish this season, and Jed Spence often came out of the left fullback position. Aitnuri was considered as a replacement. AC Milan and Liverpool are also known to be interested, so the recruitment competition is not expected to be easy. However, as the summer transfer market opened, Manchester City quickly pursued recruitment, and the situation turned around, and the confirmation of recruitment was made quickly.
Manchester City is expected to use Yosuko Gvardiol more actively as a center back if Aitnuri joins. It is expected to add resources that can add speed and vitality to the side and be a great addition to the attack.
