City’s travelling squad for Real Madrid clash confirmed | OneFootball

City boss Pep Guardiola has named a 21-man squad to travel to Spain for our UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg tie against Real Madrid.

We take on the Spanish champions at the Bernabeu on Tuesday, April 9, kick-off 20.00pm (UK).

Following a morning training session at the CFA, the City boss, his staff and players left Manchester for the Spanish capital this afternoon.

It’s the third successive season that we have met Real in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

Two years ago, the Spaniards emerged victorious, securing a 6-5 aggregate victory in a dramatic two-legged semi-final encounter.

But last season we turned the tables, storming to a decisive 5-1 semi-final aggregate triumph en-route to claiming European football’s biggest prize for the first time.
