Guardiola's classy Arter gesture after Man City see off Bournemouth

The Catalan coach has wished the midfielder well ahead of the birth of his child, with the Arter family having suffered a devastating loss in 2015

Pep Guardiola showed his class by seeking out Harry Arter after Manchester City’s 2-0 victory over Bournemouth.

The Cherries midfielder and his fiancée Rachel suffered a devastating loss in December 2015 when their daughter Renne was stillborn.

Having shown remarkable courage, the couple are now expecting another child, with the birth due any day now.

Guardiola, aware of the situation, took to the field at the Vitality Stadium on Monday to pass his best wishes onto Arter and his family.
