Manchester City will face Burton Albion in the semi-final of the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final at Pirelli Stadium.
But with the rumor mill now officially overdrive, the majority of the last pages are treated with transfer gossip.
L & # 39; Express Let's say two players could arrive before the end of January!
Despite the repeated affirmation of Pep Guardiola, there will be no new members this month.
They believe that Rubens Neves Wolves, who has been great this season for the newly promoted Midlanders, is on our side, as is Ante Palaversa of Hajduk Split.
"Neves played a crucial role in helping the Wolves return to the Premier League and was impressive again this season," they write.
"The Portuguese star has been rewarded with a new five-year contract in July, but the midfielder continues to be tied to a move to the city."
And on Palaversa, they write: "Guardiola made it clear that he wanted to reinforce his midfield options, but the 18-year-old is seen as a signature for the future rather than as an immediate competition for Fernandinho.
"He made his debut in the first Hajduk Split team this season, making 17 appearances and scoring twice for sixth in the league."

This is a theme taken up by Sky sports, who also say that Neves and Palaversa are on the radar of the Blues.
"As usual, Guardiola also plans for the future and Sky Sports News understands that City is about to enter into an agreement with Hajduk Split to engage midfielder Ante Palaversa for a fee of about £ 7 million, "they write.
However, Sky Sports acknowledges that Guardiola downplayed the idea of bringing new faces to this month.
"In this window, unlikely – and this comes from the horse's mouth – with Guardiola saying that the types of players that he would like to sign are usually not available during the January transfer window," they write. .

Guardiola: Mendy may be the best: Pep Guardiola think Benjamin Mendy could become one of the best left-backs in the world.
"The manager commented," Sometimes we did [made January signings]. But normally we buy a player, that is for the next five or six years – and normally, this kind of situation in this transfer window does not happen … If you do not hurt yourself, if you are satisfied with the players, the team you have, you go with them. "
But make no mistake, Guardiola and his team will search, identify and choose who to target this summer, as they pursue their search for the next Fernandinho. "
