Manchester City head coach Josep Guardiola shared his thoughts about winger Savio. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The 21-year-old Brazilian player recently showcased a brilliant performance in the match against Juventus during the World Club Championship (5:2), scoring one goal and providing an assist. According to Guardiola, Savio should set such a goal for himself: "I want to play a decisive role, I want to score goals and provide assists."
Then he can become an amazing player. Currently, Savio can play on both wings, is very fast, and has a good understanding of the game tactically.
For this reason, he is an important player for our team. I am pleased with his performance, said the coach.
Manchester City will take the field against Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal in the Round of 16 match on July 1. The game will start at 04:00 Moscow time.
Guardiola's team aims to win this match and advance to the next stage of the competition. Savio, on the other hand, is striving to further develop his opportunities and secure a solid place in the starting lineup.
Overall, the coach emphasized that the team is preparing at a high level.
