Abduqodir Husanov is set to make his debut in another prestigious competition!

In the new year, Abduqodir Husanov, who moved to Manchester City, is in the spotlight not only of Uzbekistan but also of football fans from other countries.

Our 20-year-old defender managed to make his debut in one of the most challenging competitions in the world – the English Premier League – just five days after joining the reigning champions of England.

Although he made several mistakes at the beginning of the game against Chelsea in his first match after joining Manchester City, this situation was assessed as natural by experts, coaches, and players.

Abduqodir was supported by head coach Josep Guardiola, the team's stars – Erling Haaland, Manuel Akanji, Josko Gvardiol, and many football specialists. Even football communities from other countries showed interest in his participation.

Now Husanov may step onto the field in another prestigious competition – the playoff stage of the UEFA Champions League.

The Manchester City players defeated Belgium's Brugge team 3:1 in the last match of the group stage. This victory gave the "Citizens" the opportunity to participate in the playoff match for a quarter-final spot.

Considering that Manchester City finished 22nd in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League, which is being held in a new format, experts announced that they would face either Real or Bayern in the playoff match.

Thus, we are also looking forward to Abduqodir Husanov's debut in the UEFA Champions League as a Manchester City player.

It is worth noting that Abduqodir Husanov has already celebrated his debut in the most prestigious competitions organized by UEFA. During his one and a half years at Lens, he participated in matches held within the framework of the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League.
