'Some fans are going to be unhappy' - Former Man City defender turns back on boyhood club by choosing Liverpool

Former Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha has backed Liverpool to win the Premier League next season ahead of his boyhood club.

Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola have done toe-to-toe for the past five seasons and were separated by just a single point last season as City won on the final day against Aston Villa.

Big-money signings have come through the door at Anfield and the Etihad, with Liverpool spending an initial £64million on Darwin Nunez just two days before City activated Erling Haaland’s £51million release clause.
