It will be the fourth consecutive League Cup final for the Catalan coach, who won the previous three occasions. It was the first title he won on arrival in Manchester and it could be the first to win this season as well.

Gone are Bournemouth, Burnley, Arsenal and Manchester United. Now only Tottenham remains, which is not little. The Champions League semi-finals against PSG are just around the corner and the achievement of the Premier League title is approaching, but the celestial coach was determined to fight for the Carabao Cup on Sunday.

“It’s a final,” Pep said at a press conference. “We cannot deny that the Champions League is close and the Premier League is not over yet, and that they are more important. But we want to win this competition. Tottenham’s commitment will be incredible and the quality of the players they have is extraordinary. It’s a final, and once you’re there, every player wants to win it. There are no exceptions ”.

“We deserve to be here. It was tough competition, especially in the semi-final. Every team wants to win finals. We will go to London to play a good game and win the title ”.

Guardiola updated the status of two of his main absences in recent weeks, Sergio Agüero and Kevin De Bruyne: “Yes, they both trained today,” he explained at the press conference on Friday. The Catalan left in the air the possible inclusion of the Argentine in the call. “He trained today for the first time in two weeks, tomorrow we will have the last session before the final. We will decide then ”.
