In other news, Enzo Maresca has been talking about why Manchester City sold Cole Palmer. According to Maresca, everyone at City knew how good Cole is, but the problem was giving him minutes with so many players at the club.

Guardiola has said he has a special feeling for the club and is happy to be staying for another two seasons.
