The head coach of Manchester City, Josep Guardiola, shared that he was unable to communicate with the team’s newcomer Abdukodir Khusanov due to a language barrier. The words of the Spanish specialist after the match of the English Championship against Chelsea (3:1) were conveyed by Sky Sports.

Khusanov will learn. He understands what happened. The way the players helped him was extremely important. Any player can make a mistake. If after that you feel lonely, it’s even harder. He is so young. He came here for many years. He will learn,” said Guardiola.
We remind you that this match was the debut for the Uzbek defender. Khusanov signed a long-term contract with the “City” team the day before, which will last until the summer of 2029.
