Guardiola Pokes Fun at Gvardiol’s Scoring Prowess
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola couldn’t resist a playful jab when discussing Josko Gvardiol’s recent goalscoring form.
After the Croatian defender netted twice in City’s dominant win over Fulham, Guardiola jokingly told BBC Radio, “We signed the best winger on the planet!”
This lighthearted comment highlights Gvardiol’s surprising attacking contributions. The £100 million summer arrival from RB Leipzig has impressed with his defensive solidity, but his recent goalscoring burst adds another dimension to his game.
Guardiola further praised Gvardiol’s dedication, mentioning that after their previous match, “he was the only one who went to the training centre for his recovery.” This dedication, coupled with his talent, suggests Gvardiol will be a valuable asset for City “for many, many years to come.”
