Star coach Pep Guardiola from English football champions Manchester City is back at his club’s disposal after a break of around three weeks due to back surgery.
The treble winner published pictures of Guardiola showing him on the pitch in a tracksuit. The 52-year-old returned this week, the club wrote. Guardiola underwent routine back surgery in August, which went well. Assistant Juanma Lillo temporarily led training and represented the head coach at games.
In Guardiola’s absence, the Premier League leaders had beaten Sheffield United and Fulham. Before the top game at fourth-placed West Ham United this Saturday (4:00 p.m.), Guardiola can give the speech again. So far the Cityzens have won all four league games.
