Manchester City Signings ‘Desperate to Win,’ Dias Says

What changed

Manchester City’s summer signings are “desperate to win,” and the squad is “buying into” new manager Enzo Maresca’s ideas, new captain Ruben Dias said, according to BBC Sport.

Why it matters

Dias’s comments point to early support for Maresca and his approach as City begin a new phase under their manager and captain. That shared commitment could help the new signings adapt and the wider squad respond to Maresca’s demands.

What to watch next

The next test is whether that buy-in appears in competitive matches. If the new players and established squad members apply Maresca’s ideas consistently, City’s transition may settle quickly; if not, the gap between confidence inside the squad and performances on the pitch will become clearer.
