- Updated: October 17, 2016
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola reportedly returned to former club Barcelona in an attempt to sign no fewer than four of his former stars this past summer, including Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.
Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo (h/t Lucas Sposito of Sport Witness) reported Manchester City hunted that pair, as well as Neymar and Sergio Busquets, before the Premier League giants were told to look elsewhere.
Guardiola will return to the Camp Nou on Tuesday evening as his City side take on Barca in the UEFA Champions League, where he’ll have the pleasure of seeing his missed transfer targets live in action.
According to the report, Guardiola first targeted Suarez before he turned his attention to Messi, and City director Ferran Soriano actually contacted Neymar’s agent before he rejected the approach. Juan Jimenez of Spanish daily AS reported on Monday the Brazilian is set to sign a new deal this Friday:
