Manchester City could look for a young right-back given how good Matheus Nunes has become in the role Manchester City appears to be in the market for a right-back this summer. Matheus Nunes has made the role his own this season, but City seems to be a right-back short in their squad. They appear to need cover for Matheus Nunes.
Nunes has become one of the top right-backs in the Premier League this season. Given the rise of Matheus Nunes, perhaps City could decide to look for a young right-back with room to develop to provide cover and competition for Matheus Nunes. If that is a path that City goes down, there are two right-backs that stand out as potential transfer targets.
Matheus Nunes showed how important he is to Manchester City in their win over Arsenal. Throughout this season, Matheus Nunes has risen in prominence for Pep Guardiola’s side. The Portuguese international has made the right-back position his own.
Matheus Nunes has cut out the errors that used to inhibit his play and now he is one of the most consistent performers for Manchester City. Nunes is good in possession, and in defensively he is more than solid. His pace and strength in a challenge is also a key aspect of Manchester City’s play.
All of this stood out in Manchester City’s Carabao Cup final win over Arsenal . Matheus Nunes was solid at the back at Wembley. In truth, Arsenal didn’t offer much of an attacking threat at Wembley.
