Pep Guardiola asked if he’s been impressed with Khusanov’s development: “A LOT!

He can play centre-back, can play all positions at the back, except left-back. He’s not a player that can create a lot up front but on his side he’s unbelievable, solid, and stable - his physicality is like Kyle [Walker] in his prime. He’s incredibly focused, he’s so young, he wants to learn. He has been really, really good against tough, tough opponents.

He’s so young, come from Uzbekistan to France and played eight or ten games in Ligue 1 and immediately after came here in a difficult season for us and a difficult moment - when you come and everything is settled everything is easier - he’s incredibly open, he learned quick.

You can smell that he’s an incredible, top signing for the many, many years at this club - this guy will have a career at this club for many, many years!”

BREAKING: Rayan Cherki's muscular injury has now healed and the midfielder could re-join the Man City matchday squad as early as next week against either AS Monaco or Brentford.

Back at home 🏡

Aside from Nico O'Reilly, no academy star has impressed Pep Guardiola as much as Divine Mukasa over the last 18 months or so. The Man City manager has been testing out the 18-year-old as a false nine in training.
