Josep Guardiola takes a dig at Premier League rivals
Man City during the current transfer window, only Savinho was acquired for 25 million euros from Troyes. At the same time, fans of the current English champions feel anxious before the start of the new campaign. In the meantime, the Citizens’ manager shared an interesting reaction.
Manchester United acquired Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee, for example. Arsenal acquired Riccardo Calafiori. Is that worrying? Josepa Guardiola?
– It is a fact that Man Utd and Arsenal have spent money on transfers for many years. This is nothing new. The only strange thing is that no one pays attention to the fact that these are clubs that spend large sums on reinforcements – said the Man City manager, quoted by Goal.com.

– Man Utd and Arsenal are getting better and better each year. In the previous campaign, the Londoners were at a similar level to us. I watched the Arsenal-Bayern match. This team is playing well. Therefore, I know that it is getting harder each season – Guardiola continued.
– Man Utd also want to get back to the top. They have signed a few players and they want the championship, which we have been winning for four years – concluded the Spaniard.
