Guardiola Keeps His Counsel over Semenyo Signing

Manchester City reportedly agreed to pay Antoine Semenyo's £65 million release clause as Guardiola highlighted the need for creativity amid a third consecutive draw.

  • On Wednesday, Pep Guardiola refused to confirm Manchester City were close to signing Antoine Semenyo despite reports of a 65million release clause and a medical scheduled for Thursday.
  • Injuries have forced Manchester City into relying on just 13 senior outfield players, stretching the squad while they created clear chances but struggled to score.
  • Erling Haaland struck from the spot, but Pep Guardiola was booked after angrily protesting the penalty and arguing with Fabian Hurzeler following the VAR review for Jeremy Doku's foul.
  • With points dropped for the third game in seven days, the draw leaves City with their third successive stalemate and gives Arsenal a chance to move eight points clear on Thursday.
  • City face broader squad questions as club sources say goals, defenders and fresh legs are what Manchester City most need to address current problems.
