Pep Guardiola tore apart a new FIFA rule ahead of the Club World Cup next summer with one simple question: 'What makes a 'strongest' team'?
FIFA have implemented a series of rule changes ahead of the summer 2025 Club World Cup, of which Manchester City will be one of the star attractions.
One such rule reportedly states that clubs must play their strongest teams in order to ensure the world's best players like Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane are present at the tournament in the USA.
Guardiola is already unimpressed by the scheduling of the Club World Cup - adding an extra month on to a season that could potentially last a full year between the start of pre-season and its final game.
