Pep Guardiola 'cannot forget' what Liverpool and eight other clubs tried to do to Man City

Pep Guardiola has admitted he ‘cannot forget’ Liverpool and the eight other Premier League sides who attempted to support Manchester City’s European ban two years ago.

City were handed a Champions League ban back in February 2020 after UEFA found them guilty of a ‘serious breach’ of financial fair play regulations. They later appealed against the decision to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), who agreed to overturn the ruling.

Liverpool, along with Arsenal, Burnley, Chelsea, Leicester City, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur and Wolves, wrote to CAS and opposed City asking for a "stay of execution" but were unsuccessful in their efforts to see the Etihad outfit punished.
