"Now is not the time": Guardiola comments on Wirtz transfer rumors
Florian Wirtz's future remains up in the air, with numerous clubs showing interest in the German midfielder. Guardiola was also asked about a potential move.
Details: The Manchester City manager responded rather sharply to the question, stating that now is not the time to discuss such matters, especially with a final coming up.
Quote: "Now is not the time to talk about this... no comments until after the final. I have 24 outstanding players. I’m not going to waste a single second talking about the future," Guardiola emphasized.
It’s worth noting that Guardiola also admitted the FA Cup is a secondary competition for his side, but this season it’s their only shot at silverware.
Reminder: Earlier, we reported that Bayer had granted Manchester City permission to open talks with the 22-year-old midfielder. The player himself and his family flew to England yesterday for negotiations, and the two clubs have already reached an agreement on the transfer.
