Manchester City defender Manuel Akandji shared his opinion on this season's match schedule.
Manuel Akanji"The Champions League has become more complicated. You have to play different teams, while Inter have different opponents. The first stage has simply become bigger, there are more games. There were six of them, and now there may be ten.
At the end of the season, the club world championship awaits us. One match is followed by another, and I can't imagine how all this will work over the course of several seasons.
Imagine if we win a league or cup, then reach the final of the Club World Cup - then the FA Cup will be just three weeks away. And when will you have a vacation? There is no break in winter. If we're lucky, we'll have two weeks off, and then we have to get ready for the new season. And in 2026, there is also the World Cup. And there is no end in sight.
I don't know what will come of it. Maybe I'll finish my career at 30!" the 29-year-old was quoted as saying by the Manchester Evening News.
