Manchester City football team's head coach Pep Guardiola has been booked for arguing with the referees in the tense match against Newcastle (3:1) in the English Cup. The Spanish specialist, claiming that Jeremy Doku was fouled by the opponent, received his sixth warning of the season for strongly protesting to the fourth official.
Idman.Biz reports with reference to the Manchester Evening News that, according to the regulations, this has resulted in Guardiola being suspended for two games. This penalty will apply to the Premier League game against West Ham and the 1/4 final stage of the English Cup.
However, the good news for the "cityzens" fans is that this ban will not apply to the Carabao Cup final match to be held on March 22. Guardiola will be able to lead his team in the crucial match against Arsenal.
It should be noted that the total transfer value of Manchester City's current squad is estimated at 1.28 billion pounds (2.91 billion AZN).
