Guardiola's overly attacking starting line-up allowed Crystal Palace to exploit City's left flank and caps a disappointing season

Pep Guardiola has offered no guarantee that Kevin De Bruyne will start his final home game for Manchester City. De Bruyne, who is leaving the club when his contract expires this summer, is set to play at the Etihad Stadium for one last time in a City shirt against Bournemouth on Tuesday.

After FA Cup final disappointment against Crystal Palace, Kevin De Bruyne appears to be entering his final week as a Manchester City player.

Manchester City are backing away from the race to sign Florian Wirtz, a source has told ESPN. The Germany midfielder had been earmarked as a possible replacement for Kevin De Bruyne, who will leave the Etihad Stadium at the end of the season.

Manchester City may have dropped out of the race to sign Florian Wirtz, but Liverpool are still firmly in the mix, according to German media. The saga surrounding the Bayer Leverkusen wonderkid took another twist on Monday as Man City officially accepted that Wirtz is beyond their financial capabilities this summer.
