Rico Luis has set a unique achievement under Guardiola coaching. What is it?
The 19-year-old prodigy Rico Lewis has been earning more frequent starting spots for Manchester City. Pep Guardiola, who strongly believes in the talent of the full-back, continues to trust him with starts in key matches.
Lewis was included in the starting XI for City's Premier League match against Wolverhampton in Matchweek 8, making history under the Catalan coach.
Details: The young defender became the first player under 20 to start 25 league matches under Pep Guardiola's management across his top-flight career.
Reminder: Rico Lewis made his debut for Manchester City’s senior team in 2022, marking the occasion with a goal in a UEFA Champions League match against Sevilla. Last season, he appeared in 16 games, but this campaign, he has featured in every match, only once coming off the bench.
