'I think at home he puts his wife on the couch as if she were a player on the pitch': Man City flop Danilo pulls no punches as he claims it's hard to have a 'good relationship' with Pep Guardiola as he's 'never relaxed'

Former Manchester City defender Danilo has taken aim at Pep Guardiola for 'never being relaxed' and hard to have a 'good relationship' with.

The Brazilian defender moved to City from Real Madrid in 2017 for £26.5m and made 23 Premier League appearances as Guardiola's side cruised to the title and registered 100 points in the process.

However, in the season that followed, he made just 11 league appearances as he was troubled by injuries and eventually left in 2019 to Juventus in part-exchange for fellow full back Joao Cancelo.
