Manchester City's head coach Josep Guardiola commented on the development of Uzbekistan defender Abdukodir Khusanov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He said he was very impressed with Khusanov's growth and the results he has shown in his position. According to the coach, Khusanov can play in all defensive positions, except he has fewer opportunities as a left-back.
He does not often initiate attacks forward, but he plays confidently and steadily in his position. Physically, he has strength similar to Kyle Walker.
Guardiola believes Khusanov will be an important player for Manchester City in the future. According to him, the player will have a long career at the club.
Manchester City purchased Khusanov in January for 40 million euros. This season, he has appeared in five matches across all tournaments but has yet to record a goal or assist.
Overall, according to the coach, Khusanov brings great benefit to the team and will continue to develop further in the future.
