Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is disappointed for Kyle Walker after his England snub.

Gareth Southgate named three right-backs in his England squad, including a recall for Kieran Trippier after his move to Atletico Madrid and a first call-up for Manchester United's Aaron Wan-Bissaka, but left out Walker.

Guardiola said: "I was surprised he wasn't picked at first. Of course we respect the decision, it's up to Gareth Southgate and I understand it.

"I'm pretty sure the players want to go and play for their national teams, but he's incredibly strong and he will be back.

"He's played really well since the beginning of the season but Wan-Bissaka and [Trent] Alexander-Arnold are incredible full-backs.

"There are many things Kyle Walker knows very well because he's spent three seasons here, but we are delighted with [new signing Joao]Cancelo and he will start to play soon. Joao must understand he has to be ready for when we decide to play him."
