Rayan Ait-Nouri's Entourage Seeks Manchester City Exit Over Playing Time Concerns
International Transfers · 04:05:31 - Sunday, 8 November 2026

Rayan Ait-Nouri's representatives are pushing for the left-back to leave Manchester City, citing concerns that his talent is being wasted at the Premier League club. According to a report from Get French Football News, the player's entourage believes the 25-year-old Algerian international cannot remain in a situation where his abilities are not being utilized.

The development comes as Ait-Nouri has struggled to secure regular first-team minutes under manager Pep Guardiola. His camp is reportedly exploring options for a move that would guarantee more consistent playing time, with the January transfer window approaching.

Manchester City signed Ait-Nouri from Wolverhampton Wanderers in 2024, but he has found opportunities limited behind established defenders in the squad. The club has not yet commented publicly on the situation.
