Pep Guardiola has come out to say that Manchester City cannot afford to match last summer's big spending.
Guardiola said City will aim to bring in one or two new additions during the summer. They spent £278m on nine players during 2017/18, including Kyle Walker, Bernardo Silva and Ederson, and there had been questions whether the likes of Manchester United, Spurs and Chelsea could match such significant amounts.
He said "We will sign one or two more, no more, we cannot invest, maybe people don't believe me but we don't have the money to invest £300m every season. We invested a lot of money and will invest less in the future, because instead of doing it in two or three transfer windows, we did it in one. We needed it for the age of the squad. The fundamental success of this season is the quality of the players. People say you won because you invest a lot, they are right. Ederson, for example, was perfect, but then at the end you are saying 'go and try the Premier League and try to play' and you don't know if it's going to happen."
