Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola broke down in tears as another Key Manchester City player goes off injured during Training this morning, a very sad moment for Man City fans as the injury seems to be a career ending injury
Manchester City will play Huddersfield Town in the FA Cup at the Etihad Stadium for the first time since 2024.
