Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is prepared to dump as many as SEVEN senior players this summer.

The Mirror says decisions will be made on John Stones, Benjamin Mendy, Leroy Sane, Gabriel Jesus, Joao Cancelo and Nicolas Otamendi – players who cost the Premier League champions a ­massive £250million.

City will also lose ­out-of-contract pair David Silva and Claudio Bravo, while they’re hopeful that RB Leipzig will sign Angelino after he left on loan on Friday.

It means the Blues are braced to make at least five new signings, with academy graduates Phil Foden, Eric Garcia, Taylor Harwood-­Bellis and Tommy Doyle also likely to get more game time.

Liverpool‘s all-conquering form has made winning the Premier League title for a third successive season ­impossible. But Guardiola knows that falling so far ­behind Jurgen Klopp‘s side, after prevailing in last year’s titanic struggle at the top, has illustrated that his squad needs a reboot.
