Manchester City’s midfield makeover plans have taken a samba twist, and yes —we’re talking about Sara. City has already made contact with the Brazilian box-to-box maestro’s entourage, according to reports that Pep Guardiola’s camp is looking at him. So, if you’re asking yourself why City are pressing for Sara to join them on loan, why not? Legs, lungs, deadly set piece. And maybe just a sprinkle of Brazilian flair for good measure.
Sara could be City’s perfect number eight
At 25, Sara is in that delicious Goldilocks zone of a football career — not too raw, not too overcooked. He’s impressed at Galatasaray this season, but don’t forget his time at Norwich City, where he clocked up 21 goals and 17 assists in 96 appearances. You don’t do that in the hustle and bustle of English football if you’re all step-overs and no substance. Sara’s engine runs hotter than a Manchester derby on deadline day, and his knack for linking midfield to attack is just what Pep’s tactical blueprint craves.
Sara’s set-piece sorcery is no joke
Let’s talk dead balls. No, not City’s Champions League dreams (those are alive and well)—we mean Sara’s set-piece delivery. It’s a weapon. Whipping corners tighter than Guardiola’s touchline sweater and pinging free kicks with precision, Sara adds an extra dimension that Kovacic and Bernardo Silva — bless them —don’t always bring to the table.
He would thrive alongside Rodri
Picture it: Rodri anchoring, Sara surging. The Spaniard mops up; the Brazilian drives forward. It’s a midfield marriage that would make even the Etihad turf blush. With Rodri handling the dirty work, Sara would get the license to gallop, glide, and — hopefully — gobsmack the Premier League once again.
In short? Manchester City doesn’t need a superstar this summer. They need Sara — steady, savvy, and sizzling enough to keep Pep’s juggernaut rolling.
