No one will go with no CL though.
They brought in Tevez, Toure, Silva, Dzeko and Balotelli when they didn't have Champions league. Havertz has played 5 champions league games in his career so far, it's not like he's been doing it for years and going deep in the competition. I'm not a City fan so I don't care if they do well but I can't see them being down for too long. As long as the owner sticks around the money is there, the premier league is pretty open for the last 3 champions league places and they will make a ton in sales if they decide to go that route.
I can also see them getting a champions league ban for two years but just one for Europe. So year two as long as they qualify they may be in Europa. So players will see it's not completely dire for years, just a small bump and then back to challenging.
