Man City boss Guardiola seething over Daniel Alves fiasco

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is fuming after seeing Daniel Alves commit to terms with PSG.

The Daily Mail says Alves turned his back on Manchester City after agreeing a stunning £12million-a-year contract with Paris Saint-Germain.

Guardiola was seething at the Brazilian's decision to snub City after terms had been thrashed out on a two-year deal.

He is set to be unveiled as a PSG player on Wednesday afternoon, however, after finalising a contract worth £230,000 a week in the French capital. The club have confirmed they will hold a press conference at 4pm local time.

City had already made plans for Alves to be involved in their tour to the USA and expected him to join their squad this week.

The 34-year-old was allowed time to finish his holiday, such was Guardiola's confidence that he would become a City player. City were unaware of PSG's interest until reports surfaced in France last weekend.
