Manchester City Fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays a report that claims Pep Guardiola plans to hand Liam Delap a chance to impress during the club’s pre-season.
The teenage striker was instrumental in City winning the U-23 league last season, scoring 24 goals and assisted 5 in a sensational year for the youngster.
Delap is one of City’s most exciting youth prospects. And next season could see the teenager play more first-team minutes after dominating Premier League 2.
According to Martin Blackburn for The Sun newspaper, Pep Guardiola plans to hand the youngster a chance to impress during the club’s pre-season as his search for a new forward drags on.
The report adds that Several Championships clubs are keen to take him on loan, but Guardiola is a big fan and will not sanction any switch – at least not until he has a striker.
The 18-year-old striker have been touted for a huge future in the game, having already made first-team appearances for the current English Premier League Champions.
In reaction to the report shared on Twitter by City Xtra, many Man City fans have been sharing their thoughts and opinions.

Exactly what we should do. This kid could be immense and save us 10’s of millions. Let’s just hope he takes the opportunity.

His attitude is perfectly fine. He couldn’t be less like Zlatan. Sancho wasn’t a bad kid and he didn’t leave because of attitude disagreements. Pep wanted to keep him. Sancho forced a move at 16 years old cos he wanted immediate first team football. So there’s no comparison
