Pep Guardiola: Manchester City Squad Size “Not Healthy” Despite Wolves Win

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has reiterated the need to trim his squad before the summer transfer window closes on September 1. The comments came after City’s 4-0 victory at Wolves on Saturday evening.

Ederson and Savinho, both subject to transfer speculation, were left out of the squad. Guardiola explained his concerns post-match:

“It’s not healthy, you cannot create a good atmosphere to compete. Everyone has to feel they can play, they can help, they can compete with their mates to beat the opponent.”

FAQs

• Which players were left out? Ederson and Savinho.
• What deadline matters here? The Premier League summer transfer window closes September 1.
