Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano has promised that the champions will adhere to the transfer policy that saw them drop their interest in £105million-rated Declan Rice.
Soriano, speaking at the announcement of a new sponsorship deal with cryptocurrency giants OKX, insisted that the Blues will not be held to ransom in their efforts to strengthen Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering squad. He admitted that City have had to spend big in the past to get to the summit of European football.
But at the end of a week when the Blues pulled out of the battle with Arsenal to sign Rice after West Ham rejected their £90 million bid for the England midfielder, the Etihad chief outlined how he now goes about his business.
