City will keep on loaning players to Girona despite relegation

Since 2015, several City players have arrived at Girona on loan deals. Many of these moves have ultimately proved to be unsuccessful, with Pablo Maffeo possibly being the standout loanee from the English champions.

Even so, the two sides will continue their affiliation next season, in which Girona will compete in Spain's second division after being relegated from La Liga last campaign.

Girona's main objective next season will be to bounce straight back up to Spain's top flight, although it's likely that they will have to attempt to do so with a rather different side from the one that went down last campaign.
