"Following a third consecutive trophyless season and the added disappointment of dropping out of the Champions League places, there has been something of a summer reset at Manchester City. Andree Jeglertz, the former Denmark coach, has made the move to England to become Manchester City's head coach and is tasked with changing their fortunes of a team that has, by their high standards, underdelivered in recent years."
"They have said goodbye to three senior players in Chloe Kelly, Laia Aleixandri and Jill Roord, while welcoming in five new signings so far, including reinforcing their defensive depth with the additions of the Austria full-back Laura Wienroither and the Canada defender Jade Rose, while the arrivals of Sydney Lohmann and Iman Beney higher up the pitch will give fans cause for excitement."
A summer reset followed a third consecutive trophyless season and the failure to qualify for the Champions League. Andree Jeglertz moved from Denmark to become Manchester City's head coach with a mandate to reverse underperformance. Three senior players departed while five new signings arrived, including defensive reinforcements Laura Wienroither and Jade Rose and attacking additions Sydney Lohmann and Iman Beney. The squad retains elite forward talent such as Khadija Shaw, Vivianne Miedema and Lauren Hemp and technical midfield and defensive quality. Consistent performance across a full 22-game league season and a return to European places are expected.
