Man City boss Guardiola: A grudge against Daniel Alves...?

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola insists he has no problem over Daniel Alves' snub.

The former Juventus fullback rejected Guardiola and City to sign for PSG.

The manager stated: "I'm not at all disappointed, I have a lot of respect for him, I was lucky to have been his coach.

"You cannot imagine how my four years in Barça were with him. We had this understanding on the ground and outside, we got along very humanly, I wish him the best in his career and his family.

"The people I love, I want their happiness, he decided that for his career and his personal life, it was better that he go to Paris rather than come to Manchester. We would have liked him to come of course, but he made another choice, again good luck to him."
