Manchester City are preparing for significant changes after it was revealed that director of football Txiki Begiristain will leave at the end of the season. His role has been pivotal, particularly his recruitment of Pep Guardiola back in 2016. The club faces crucial decisions ahead, especially with Guardiola's contract nearing its end and ongoing charges of financial misconduct looming over them.
Following news of Begiristain's impending departure, Fabrizio Romano reported that Sporting CP's Hugo Viana is the frontrunner to step into the role. Viana's background, especially his time as a player at Newcastle, may resonate with English football fans, as he was once a highly regarded midfielder. With the right successor needed for the club’s future, Viana's track record as a sporting director will be under scrutiny.
