Abduqodir Husanov's future in "Siti" has been clarified

The transfer of Uzbekistan national team central defender Abduqodir Husanov from "Lans" to "Manchester City" in January became one of the most talked-about transfers of 2025.

Indeed, during the winter transfer window, nearly twenty clubs from Europe showed interest in the Uzbek footballer. Among them were teams that seriously pursued this transfer.

In the end, "Manchester City" secured the 20-year-old central defender for 50 million euros, including bonuses.

Thus, Abduqodir Husanov's adventures in English football began. The first Uzbek player in the English Premier League is making a very good impression. He even managed to score his first goal in the FA Cup.

Russian football agent Dmitriy Selyuk assessed Abduqodir Husanov's future at "Manchester City".

- Considering the large sum for which Abduqodir Husanov was transferred, Josep Guardiola will not give up on this player.

I believe that if Abduqodir does not make serious mistakes, he will be given regular playing time. Regardless of what happens, Husanov will have enough opportunities to prove himself at "Manchester City", - said Dmitriy Selyuk.

"Manchester City" head coach Josep Guardiola has also expressed his thoughts about the Uzbek player several times during interactions with journalists. In none of these instances did the Spanish specialist criticize his new protégé. Even in the situation where Abduqodir was involved in a goal and received a yellow card in the first five minutes of his debut match against "Chelsea", none of the "City" players blamed him. On the contrary, stars like Guardiola, Ederson, Akanji, Kevin de Bruyne, and Haaland supported him.

Josep Guardiola has not hidden his high hopes for the 20-year-old Uzbek footballer.

- Abduqodir Husanov has the potential to become a great player in the future. The talent we see in him will elevate him to a high level. This will be beneficial for all of us.

I really liked Abduqodir's composure with the ball and his extreme speed. Now he needs to improve his decision-making skills, which is a matter related to age, - said Josep Guardiola.

It should be noted that Abduqodir Husanov learned the initial secrets of football at the "Bunyodkor" academy. He began his professional career in 2022 at the Belarusian club "Energetik-BGU".

A year later, he was picked up by the then vice-champion of France, "Lans". After playing in France for a year and a half, our compatriot finally found a home at "Manchester City". Abduqodir Husanov became "Lans"'s most expensive transfer.
