Manchester City considers Foden and Cherki for right wing role this summer
Summary

Manchester City faces challenges in acquiring a new winger during this summer transfer window. With limited options available in the market, the club may rely on Phil Foden and Rayan Cherki as internal candidates for the right wing position.

If Foden and Cherki perform well in this role, they could potentially shift Antoine Semenyo to the left wing, enhancing competition with Jeremy Doku. Enzo Maresca's deployment of these players during the upcoming tour of Asia will be indicative of their roles next season.
