Guardiola, ashamed after altercation with waiter and criticism of Echeverri.

Pep Guardiola, the renowned Manchester City coach, has expressed his regret after an incident that occurred after his team’s defeat against Newcastle United. The Catalan coach was “ashamed” of his interaction with a waiter during the match. The altercation took place on the St James’ Park pitch and captured the attention of everyone present. In addition to the confrontation with the cameraman, Guardiola was also seen in heated conversations with referee Samuel Barrott and Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimarães. In a press conference, Guardiola admitted to having apologized to the cameraman for his behavior. “I feel ashamed when I see it. I don’t like it. I apologized immediately,” declared the coach.

I am as I am. After 1,000 matches I am not a perfect person, I make huge mistakes. What is certain is that I defend my team and my club, that is for sure. The reason is that I want to defend my team and my club.

The coach also took advantage of the conference to address the situation of Claudio Echeverri, an Argentinian player on loan from City to Bayer Leverkusen. Guardiola hinted that he was not entirely happy with the young footballer’s situation in Germany. Guardiola pointed out that the club would have preferred Echeverri to play for Girona, a club associated with the City Football Group. When asked about the possibility of Echeverri returning to City in January, Guardiola responded with an ironic phrase: “It’s a question for his beautiful agent.”
