Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has expressed his desire to have Kevin De Bruyne and Julian Alvarez remain with the club.
Recall that the two players have been linked with a move out of the club this summer.
However, Guardiola, in a chat with the club’s website, stated that he’s not thinking of replacing them.
“The club informed me that they didn’t have an offer. I don’t know what will happen, but I want him to stay.
“He was here before I arrived. He is the eldest (longest serving) player here.

“It happened with David, for example, and other players; he has the credit to decide his future himself.
“What he has done for us is massive, so he can decide. The information I have now is that he will stay.”
“I don’t think about replacing it. I knew he said he would think about it,” Pep added to Alvarez.
“Once he has finished thinking, his agent will call Txiki (Begiristain), and we will see what happens.
“I know he wants to play in important moments, but the other players do too.
“We have 18 or 19 players who want to play in the important games.
“I read he has to think about it, so okay, think about it, and after that, he will inform us what he wants to do.”
