Manchester City manager Josep Guardiola revealed the name of the player whose departure from Manchester City he considers premature.

I'd go for a less obvious choice, Jesús Navas. He should have stayed with us longer.
Navas played for Manchester City from 2013 to 2017 before returning to his youth club Sevilla, where he retired in December 2024.
A product of Sevilla’s academy, he won the Copa del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup, and lifted the UEFA Cup/Europa League four times. He remains the only Spanish player to win four major titles with the national team: the UEFA European Championships 2012 and 2024, the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and the 2023 UEFA Nations League.
Previously, Guardiola said he might remain at Manchester City until 2029.
