It’s no secret that the Sky Blues have struggled defensively this season, with the departure of club legend and ex-captain Vincent Kompany debatably being one of the main catalysts, but City may have found the perfect heir to his throne in the form of Benfica ace Ruben Dias.
Dias has been a mainstay for the Primeira Liga side this season, starting 24 league games and helping to guide Aguias to within touching distance of top spot in a battle with FC Porto for the domestic crown.
