JAKARTA - Manchester City manager, Josep Guardiola, praised the mentality of Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham. This praise was made ahead of Dortmund vs Man City's match in the 2022/2023 Champions League.

Man City came to Signal Iduna Park with the status of confirming a place in the knockout phase. However, they are still eyeing victory in order to match the group title position.

In notes on paper, Man City is clearly the favorite. However, Guardiola does not want to be happy. According to him, Dortmund has a dangerous player.

One of them is Bellingham who is still 19 years old. Despite being young, he has already been assigned as captain of Dortmund.

This torehan amazed Guardiola. He called Bellingham a complete player.

"He (Bellingham) was already one of their captain (Dortmund) at the age of 19, it was very impressive," said Pep Guardiola.

"It's not just about goals, the whole makes him a very good complete package player. He already played for England at the age of 19 years. We know the quality he has," he continued.

Guardiola said Bellingham's career in Dortmund was the right choice. As a talented young player, Bellingham will have more time at his current club than in the Premier League.

"I think Dortmund is the perfect place for talented young players. Maybe if Bellingham goes to the Premier League top team, he won't get playing minutes," he said.

The best way for a young player to get better is to play. He has a special mentality," he praised.

Guardiola then mentioned the meeting with Dortmund. For him this meeting will be a tough test, but his team will enjoy playing in Germany in front of the famous Yellow Wall.

This is a fantastic stadium and everyone knows it. Atmospherically, the atractive football they play. I'm happy to be back here," concluded Pep Guardiola.
