Pedro Porro, a Tottenham player, has revealed that he was at Manchester City for three years without ever speaking to Pep Guardiola.
The right-back joined Spurs in January, and last Saturday against Southampton he scored his first goal for the team.
Pedro Porro spent three years for Manchester City before being terminated.
He was forced out of Manchester City, however, and has had to wait patiently for his moment in the Premier League.
He signed up with the City in 2019, but since the club felt he wasn't yet ready, he was loaned to Real Valladolid and Sporting Lisbon.
In an interview with The Guardian, Porro, 23, admitted he never even trained at the club and said when asked whether he had ever spoken to Guardiola:No, no, nothing.
"They told my agents and we looked [for somewhere to go]. I wasn’t there at all. I didn’t even train. Nothing was said directly to me.
“You don’t feel important. And that’s hard. You’re there but you’re not there. I took it as a [sign that] I had to grow, follow my own path. It wasn’t just that it’s a big club, I was little too.
“When I left City for Valladolid it was a smack in the face because I was very young.
“City wanted to sign me long term but decided to loan me to mature in professional football because I’d only been playing for a year, at Girona.”
