Guardiola reveals the name of the coach he admires most

After a 2023-24 season, Brighton fell somewhat into line during this 2023-24 financial year. But Pep Guardiola still admires the work of his colleague Roberto De Zerbi. The Catalan technician once again made very complimentary remarks about the Italian, while Manchester City and Brighton must face each other this Thursday for the 29th day of the Premier League.

“ My admiration for him grows every season, enthused Guardiola. Brighton had other problems. Many important players were sold, such as Colwill, Mac Allister and Caicedo. They are very important players. They had numerous injuries throughout the competition. But their way of playing is still there. He’s doing an incredible job in Brighton! “.

Guardiola loves De Zerbi

If this exit from Guardiola should not leave De Zerbi indifferent, it above all announces a warm reunion between the two men. Because this is not the first time that the former Barça coach has expressed his admiration for the Brighton coach.

A few months ago, Pep Guardiola went even further by affirming that Roberto De Zerbi had all the qualities to succeed him at the helm of Manchester City. The Italian, who enjoys an excellent rating on the market, is also cited by Barcelona.
