Ferdinand: Huge Challenge for Man City in Retaining the Treble
Kevin De Bruyne's injury and the departures of Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez will make it difficult for Manchester City to retain the treble, according to Rio Ferdinand. Ferdinand believes City are now a weaker side compared to last season and that manager Pep Guardiola faces a significant challenge. He also highlighted the pressure on Erling Haaland to replicate his goal-scoring feats from last season.
