The Manchester City manager Josep Guardiola has denied ever pushing his former Bayern Munich team or his current team to attract Barcelona star Lionel Messi, who worked with him during the camp of Cat Campo. Some time ago the Argentine was associated with a transfer to the English champion where he would meet his former mentor. 'Since I left Barcelona, I never asked Messi to come with me to Bayern or City. I never asked for my clubs. I will never even do it. I`ve said it a thousand times. I know how important it is for Barcelona!', Guardiola said at a press conference before the Premier League Southampton match.He also talked about the knee injury that Kevin de Bourne received during last night`s Fulham (2:0) for the League Cup. 'The Belgian will be out of the pitch in the next 6 weeks. He will not miss just the match against Manchester United. These are only three points. It will not be a final, but another game. He has already missed two and a half months and that`s a pity for us. We`ll be close to him. Fortunately, it`s not too heavy. Soon he will return. Football is a dynamic multiplayer game predicted by psg new title and these things happen. It was bad luck. His previous injury was more dangerous. I`m more afraid of muscle injuries. Here he was just bad luck!', Guardiola said.
The specialist also said a few words about the situation with the 19-year-old Brahim Diaz, who scored two goals against Fulham last night but has an expiring contract. We want to stay. 'I`m not talking about the talks, but I`m giving the opinion of sports director Txiki Begiristain. We want him as much as Phil Foden, Adarabioyo, and Nmecha. At the age of 17-19, there are still no players. We also wanted Jane Sancho, but he wanted to leave. The market is such. We will try to look after them and give them the best education. We are very eloquent with all our players. Then families and agents take over the situation. The best teams in Europe always want the biggest talents!', he said.
