Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is relaxed about being unable to strengthen during the January transfer window.

"In Barcelona, in Bayern Munich, here, I never push," said Guardiola. "The clubs I work with always try to do their best and sometimes it is possible, sometimes not.

"But it is not a big problem. I said many times we are working now for this month, but for the future, for the next seasons.

"If it happens, it happens. If not, I will work with the players I have. The toughest period to buy players is now, because everybody wants to keep their players, so it is not easy.

"We do believe we need something, because we have four competitions. If it doesn't happen, we will move forward with the players we have."
