Manchester City have been looking at wingers following Riyad Mahrez’s move to Al Ahli.
The Premier League champions do like Crystal Palace’s Michael Olise but it remains to be seen how they replace Mahrez.
Pep Guardiola suggested that there is no like-for-like signing available. ‘We are not looking for replacement for Riyad in terms of skill because every player is different,’ he added.
‘We will see what happens with loan players [leaving], and which players stay here. A few things are going to happen. The market is open until end of August.
‘It is not easy to replace this kind of player. He doesn’t feel the pressure, he is a guy who has to play every single day to be happy. I understand completely.
‘I know how tough it was to not play in the FA Cup final and Champions League final. It was really good to work with him. Our relationship was ups and lows, but always with incredible respect.’
