Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini has revealed a special gesture he received from Pep Guardiola.
Manchester City host the Oribici tonight in the Champions League.
Gasperini said, "I must say that Guardiola is a very great person, beyond this, he made a gesture that had never happened to me before.
"Eight years ago, when I left Inter he called me through Estiarte, with whom we had known each other since Pescara, and invited me to Barcelona to spend a few days with them.
"For me it was an extraordinary gesture, of great sensitivity, because at that moment he gave me something beautiful. Also for this I respect him a lot. Having said that being here is beautiful, even if they are definitely dangerous..."
