Could another dynamic Belgian winger arrive at Manchester City this summer?

Johan Bakayoko has impressed for PSV this season. Playing on the right wing for the Dutch giants, he has made 40 appearances in all competitions so far this season. He has scored 8 goals and added 13 assists for PSV so far this campaign.

A strength that stands out in Bakayoko’s game is his delivery from the right-hand side. The youngster excels in this facet of the game. His delivery has been compared to that of Kevin De Bruyne and Trent Alexander-Arnold. A report from scoutedftbl.com drew the comparison between Bakayoko’s delivery and that of two of the elite playmakers in the Premier League. With Erling Haaland up top, that asset could prove to be invaluable to the world champions.

Another noted strength of Bakayoko’s game is the ability to retain possession. While he isn’t blessed with lightning pace like Jeremy Doku, he is strong enough to ride challenges and keep the ball. That attribute appears ideally suited to Pep Guardiola’s squad. Possession is king for the world champions, and another player who can maintain possession would be invaluable to Manchester City.

It is no secret that Manchester City does require a quality option for the right wing position. As it stands, Phil Foden and Bernardo Silva currently occupy the role for Pep Guardiola’s side. But both players play their best football in the centre of the pitch. Often, they drift centrally where they do their best work. A player such as Bakayoko could potentially come in and accommodate the permanent shift of Phil Foden to midfield.

Manchester City’s interest in Jeremy Bakayoko is a story to watch for as the summer transfer window approaches. As a player, his strengths appear well suited for life at the Etihad. If the treble winners do make a move for Johan Bakayoko, they could potentially be adding a young winger who seems perfectly suited to a role in Pep Guardiola’s squad.
