Pep Guardiola reaffirms his commitment to Manchester City, expressing a strong conviction in staying with the club, even in the unlikely event of relegation to League One.
Amidst the 115 charges faced by City regarding Premier League financial fair play regulations, Guardiola boldly addressed the uncertain situation, stating that the likelihood of City dropping to League One is higher than them winning the Champions League again. He emphasized that the club will wait for the sentence and then provide explanations.
In response to comparisons drawn with Everton’s record 10-point deduction, Guardiola emphasized the uniqueness of each case, stating that City’s situation is distinct and complex with multiple breaches. He stressed the importance of waiting for the legal process to unfold before making any judgments.
Guardiola underlined the team’s innocence until proven guilty, stating the need for patience as both sides present their cases before the judge. He clarified that the situations involving Everton and Manchester City are fundamentally different and should not be equated.
Moreover, Guardiola addressed Erling Haaland’s return from injury, confirming his availability for the upcoming match against Liverpool after the player trained with City following an early return due to an ankle injury during international duty.
