Tijjani Reijnders Feels the Pressure to Win Titles at Manchester City
Midfielder Tijjani Reijnders has expressed his feelings about the pressure to win trophies after arriving at Manchester City. The City finished last season without titles, finishing third in the Premier League and losing the FA Cup final. This situation marked the first time since 2017 that Pep Guardiola’s team did not win a major trophy. Reijnders acknowledges the need to reverse this situation, starting with the FIFA Club World Cup.Reijnders, who arrived at City from AC Milan in the special transfer window for the Club World Cup, could debut against Wydad AC in Philadelphia on Wednesday. Last season, the 26-year-old player scored 10 goals in the league from midfield and hopes to increase that figure in the City shirt.City is one of the biggest clubs in the world and if you play for a club like this, you have to win prizes. It was almost obvious when City showed up. An easy choice in the end. It’s important to play European football and playing for City is a dream.

That’s what I did last season with Milan, to be more on the list of goalscorers. It’s very important to score goals as a midfielder and that’s what I’m looking for, that and assists. In the first season at Milan I wasn’t calm in my head when I had opportunities and it was something I thought about in the summer afterwards. I watched clips of myself when I got to those situations and tried to adapt to those kinds of things in the second season, to be calmer in front of the goal.
