Guardiola decides to score a goal against West Ham

Manchester City is about to make its first appearance in the Premier League for the 2019/2020 season against West Ham on Saturday afternoon.

Sky Blue aims to preserve the Premier League title won over the past two seasons. The city remains an outstanding candidate to retain the title while retaining its most prominent stars and joining others during the summer transfer window, which will offer multiple options to Spanish coach Pep Guardiola.

Manchester City will benefit from the return of its Algerian star and champion of Africa with "Desert Warriors", Riad Mehrez, who missed Sunday's charity meeting against Liverpool.

Guardiola confirmed that Mehrez was ready at a press conference held on Friday before the upcoming clash against the "hammers", where he said: "Yes, Riad Mehrez is ready and we can count on this clash, which is the same case for the American Laport, who has completely recovered from his injuries. "

Pep Guardiola excluded Mehrez from the shield against Liverpool, because of the player during his vacation on the use of drugs containing stimulants, which would subject him to a severe penalty from the FA if he suffered a badysis after this interview.

Mehrez will have the task of confirming his high standards to the African Nations and improving his position in the Manchester City team compared to the previous season, which saw his contributions fluctuate despite his strong comeback at the end of the season.
