Nedum Onuoha, a former Manchester City player, praised Josko Gvardiol for his impressive performances this season. Gvardiol, who joined City from RB Leipzig for £77m, has been playing predominantly as a left-back despite being a natural centre-back. He has made 35 appearances for the Blues across all competitions and has shown his defensive capabilities and attacking prowess. Gvardiol has the highest combined total of tackles and interceptions among City defenders and has been actively involved in the attacking third of the pitch.

Onuoha highlighted Gvardiol’s confidence and ability to adapt quickly to a new country and team like Manchester City. The 22-year-old has not been overawed by big occasions and has shown his experience from playing in the Champions League, World Cups, and Euros. Onuoha believes that Gvardiol’s comfort on the ball and versatility in both defensive and attacking situations make him a valuable asset for City as they aim for success in the FA Cup and Premier League.

Despite City’s recent Champions League exit, they are still in contention for the FA Cup and are on course to secure a fourth consecutive Premier League title. Gvardiol’s contributions from the left-back position have been crucial in City’s pursuit of silverware this season. With his impressive defensive work and attacking presence, Gvardiol has proven to be a key player for City, earning praise from Onuoha and showcasing his potential to continue making an impact at the club.
