Manchester City will not want to sleep on their achievements this summer as they aim to win the Premier League for the second time in a row.
What do you get the person who has everything?
Manchester City, who have won four Premier League names in a column, appear to have everything they need, but Pep Guardiola will be as knowledgeable as anyone else about the cost of his crew becoming stale.
What must City do in the summer transfer window as they attempt to win a second Premier League title while defending their title from Real Madrid? DataVictory takes a look at what a vision screen may look like for City.
What is Manchester City's leading transfer goal?
Following the winger's excellent shape on loan at Girona in La Liga last season, City made their first signing of the year last week by signing Portuguese star Savinho from Troyes in a package price up to £35million.
That bugs off one place, but the most pressing have appears to be a new key midfielder, with the membership being linked with a number of big-name people in recent months.
Involvement in Lucas Paqueta looks to have gone cold given the West Ham boy's FA demand for alleged playing offences, but his brother Brazil global Bruno Guimaraes continues to be linked with a move to the Etihad. He would n't be cheap, given Newcastle United's reluctance to sell, but City would be paying for a proven Premier League performer at the height of his powers.
Replace aging stars
Pep Guardiola confirmed this week that Kevin De Bruyne will not be leaving for Saudi Arabia or the MLS this year, but at 33 years of age, City needed to get an heir to their playmaker's king.
Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze is the latest player of this type to be liked, while RB Leipzig's Hispanic sun Dani Olmo and a former Guardiola command in Bayern Munich's Joshua Kimmich have also been the theme of gossip column debate.
Kyle Walker, 34, is the City squad's oldest outfielder, and despite never exhibiting any signs of slowing down, he needs to be named. After four decades on loan at Braga and Girona, Yan Couto, 22, is set to make his City debut. He may already be signed.
Lift some money
City will need to increase money from clearing out those on the edge, as is the case with any team right now.
Joao Cancelo also has three years left on his commitment after spending the past 18 months on borrowing and a permanent withdrawal may generate some more financial breathing room.
A departure would seem to suit both the player and the team, but Kalvin Phillips only has four more years left on his deal.
