Former Manchester City defender Danny Mills believes that Liverpool’s Adam Lallana would be the perfect fit for Pep Guardiola’s side.
City are celebrating back-to-back Premier League titles and becoming the first side in the history of men’s football in the country to secure a domestic treble.
The aim for Guardiola will be to go again next season, as well as conquering Europe, and activity in the market is expected this summer - with one major departure already confirmed with Vincent Kompany returning to Anderlecht.
A host of players from across the continent have been linked with a move to the Etihad Stadium but Mills believes an ideal signing can be found closer to home in the form of Lallana.
“You almost forget about him but he is very gifted and talented footballer,” he told Football Insider.
“I would almost say he more fits the Man City style, he’d be perfect for them with his short, darting runs and clever runs in behind.
“As you start to get older, you realise you are not invincible and your career is not going to go on forever. Liverpool will definitely want to keep him but it might come down to him wanting to reignite his career.
“If that’s the case, he’s going to go. He’s such a good player he won’t be short of interested clubs.”
Lallana made just six starts for Liverpool this season after an injury-ravaged campaign in 2017/18, with speculation suggesting he could be on his way out of Anfield.
