“He is someone who can play on both sides, today he finally scored a goal. He has extraordinary ability and quality which he has proven in that period,” he continued.

It is known that in the match against Leicester City, Savinho was an important figure by scoring one goal, plus one assist which led to Erling Haaland’s goal.

Pep continued that Savinho arrived at Manchester City six months with the team’s condition not being as strong as in previous seasons.
