The club plans to enhance other squad areas, focusing on two midfielders, a right-back, and a winger, while also considering a backup goalkeeper. Omar Marmoush, who is expected to remain at City, will not be replaced. Following a frustrating previous season marked by injury and limited opportunities, Marmoush may benefit from a new manager.
