Pellegrini: Man City squad facing changes

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini admits there will be squad changes this summer.

Pellegrini says City must try to make changes this summer but he also claims that all of his rivals must do the same.

Speaking at his press conference before Sunday's match against Southampton, Pellegrini said: "It's not easy to tell you which changes will be made in the summer. I think that all the clubs, it's not only my opinion about this club, must make changes at the end of a season. My words would be exactly the same if we had won the title."

He continued: "Not major, serious surgery as the media say because I don't think we need that but it's important to have new faces, important to try every year to have a stronger squad but not because our squad is too old or not because we lost the title this year. Every year it is important to make changes."
