Reports emerging from England suggest growing tension at Manchester City, as manager Pep Guardiola is reportedly frustrated over the possibility of one of his key players agreeing to join Manchester United in the upcoming January transfer window.
According to sources close to the club, the unnamed player has already agreed on personal terms with Manchester United, signaling a potential high-profile switch between two of England’s biggest rivals. Guardiola is said to be disappointed by the player’s decision, particularly given his past experiences with transfers involving Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko, who both left City for Arsenal in search of new challenges.
This potential move would mark an even more controversial development, as transfers between Manchester City and Manchester United are extremely rare due to the fierce rivalry between the two clubs. Guardiola reportedly feels “betrayed,” especially as the timing of the deal coincides with Manchester United’s recent upturn in form and growing confidence under their new structure.
While details remain under wraps, the story has stirred significant discussion among fans and pundits alike. Many are questioning what might have motivated the player’s decision and whether City would even sanction a deal to their direct rival.
If the transfer does go through, it could become one of the most shocking moves of the season — not only because of the rivalry but also because of the growing tension it might create within the Manchester City dressing room.
