Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola breaks the silence and delivers the latest injury report on Savinho after his debut substitution

Savinho played on the left for City at Stamford Bridge at first, but was taken off at halftime.

Pep Guardiola, the manager of Manchester City, has good news about Savinho’s injury. The rookie was taken off in the first-day win at Chelsea.

The Brazilian player got to start because Jack Grealish was only fit enough to sit on the bench and Phil Foden had just started training again, so he was also on the bench. That being said, the second player was called on at halftime because Savinho was hurt.


After 45 minutes, the 20-year-old had a great game. He helped set up Erling Haaland’s goal, which gave City a 1-0 lead. But he hurt his knee late in the first half and had to be treated for a long time on the field before limping to the benches. He came back, but after the break, he couldn’t keep going.

But Guardiola was positive about Savinho’s health after the game. The knee hurts in some places. “He said he knows really well why, had it before,” the City boss said. “He has to figure it out, and it’s because he didn’t prepare or trained enough.” It doesn’t look like a very big problem. We hope to be ready for next Saturday.

In general, Guardiola said this about the winger’s play: “We always expect the best.” The first game today is a coin toss. How is the team doing? How does he feel? I’m not sure. The first game… Eighty percent of the preseason games were played by school players.

“But the first effect was great. It isn’t always about how well you play in your first game in England at Stamford Bridge. That kind of play tells me that he is mature and has the right attitude to become a great player. We’re thrilled by that news.
