Latest Fantasy Rumors
To switch positions permanently?
Matheus Nunes might change positions on a permanent basis, according to Mark Ogden of ESPN.
ANALYSIS
Nunes has spent most of his career playing as a midfielder, but he's been deployed as a right-back by Pep Guardiola. The Spanish manager recently stated that Nunes "is not clever enough" to play the midfield role he wants at City, so it seems the former Wolves star will switch to the right side of the defense for good, or at least until Guardiola remains with the club.
