Manchester City’s players celebrate on the podium after winning the 2023 UEFA Super Cup football match between Manchester City and Sevilla at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus on August 16, 2023/AFPPix: Manchester City’s treble winners have added more silverware to their collection, but a UEFA Super Cup victory over Sevilla only exposed some cracks in Pep Guardiola’s squad ahead of another demanding campaign.
De Bruyne’s four-month absence due to a serious hamstring injury has exacerbated the loss of goals from midfield caused by the departures of Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez since the end of last season. Yet, Guardiola was far from convinced after the match that even Palmer would be part of his squad once the transfer market closes on September 1.
Under the baking heat in the Greek capital, Guardiola made only one substitution when Julian Alvarez was introduced late on for Palmer. Real Madrid duo Thibaut Courtois and Eder Militao’s seasons could already be over after suffering anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
