Manchester City manager Josep Guardiola has issued a public apology to former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard for comments made after the Premier League accused City of more than 100 financial violations.
The English champions could face points deductions or even expulsion from the English top flight if found guilty by an independent panel of alleged wrongdoing between 2009/10 and 2017/18.
In his first press conference since the allegations were made public, Guardiola said: “I don’t know if we are responsible for Steven Gerrard slipping.” With these words, the specialist recalled Gerrard’s mistake in the lost Chelsea match in 2014. That season, Manchester City became champions.
I apologize to Steven Gerrard for my unnecessary and stupid comments I made last time about him. He knows my attitude towards him for what he did in the country where I live. I defended my club, but I did not represent my club well with my stupid comments. I’m ashamed. I apologized to him privately, but since the comment was public, my apology should also be public,” Guardiola said.
