Manchester City chief Garry Cook says the next 12 months will be focused on bringing more youngsters through from the club's academy.
"We will not be signing players to the extent we have done in the past year," City executive chairman Garry Cook told Abu Dhabi newspaper The National.
"Our academy will be the focus for the next 12 months."
Having assembled a squad he believes can now "challenge the best in the Premier League", Cook has promised to channel resources into other areas of the club's infrastructure.
"Now we can go back and do what we have been doing so well, and over-invest with coaches, staffing, sports science, the whole thing," he said. "The youth development is huge for us. We have already done a few things in this area that will bear fruit."
