UBAI, (Reuters) – Newly-crowned Premier League champions Manchester City will strengthen their squad in the close season as the club target European glory next year, manager Roberto Mancini said yesterday.
The Italian led City to their first domestic title in 44 years on Sunday as a stoppage-time goal from Sergio Aguero sealed a 3-2 win over Queens Park Rangers to pip defending champions Manchester United on goal difference.
City have spent more than 400 million pounds ($643.88 million) on players since Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan bought the club in 2008 and the lavish spending is set to continue with Lille winger Eden Hazard poised to join.
“Probably we will buy some good players, because we need to improve,” Mancini told Sky News Arabia. “We have a good team, it is important we can put inside a player that can play with this team.
