Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has made headlines for his kind gesture to 114 fans who traveled to Ukraine to support the team in their Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk on September 18, 2019.
According to reports, Guardiola personally wrote a 'thank you' letter to each of the 114 fans, bearing his signature, to express his gratitude for their support.
"Dear Darren, on Wednesday 18th September you and 113 other dedicated supporters made the long trip to watch us play against Shakhtar Donetsk in Ukraine, and I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you," the 48-year-old wrote.
He also invited them for a City Hospital experience when the English champions take on their Ukrainian counterpart in a rematch encounter slated for November 28, 2019.
"As a gesture of our thanks, we would like to invite you to a City hospitality experience at the return fixture vs Shakhtar Donetsk on 26th November 2019," the Spaniard said.
