On Friday, the football world was shocked by the news that "Manchester City" team has been banned from international tournaments for two seasons due to severe FFP ("Financial Fair Play") violations.
After Saturday's victory against "Norwich," "Liverpool" manager Jurgen Klopp also commented on this situation, expressing his sympathy for Pep Guardiola and the "Man City" players.
"This news really shocked me. I truly don't know how all these things are happening, but as a football coach, I can say that 'Manchester City' has been playing amazing football since Pep Guardiola took over the team.
I have always admired Pep's work and how his team has been playing in recent years.
I really don't know what will happen next. Obviously, 'City' will appeal this decision. I think we will receive more information that people will discuss very actively.
Frankly, I feel sorry for Guardiola and the 'Man City' players, because they truly did nothing wrong and showed fantastic football. Wherever Pep worked, he helped to elevate the level of football.
However, we all must respect the rules. I really don't know if they broke them or not, but UEFA has its own opinion and we will see what the future holds," Klopp said after the victory.
