Pep Guardiola has expressed concerns that participation in the FIFA Club World Cup might adversely affect Manchester City's season. He noted the unprecedented nature of this expanded version of the tournament, stating uncertainty about how it might impact player fatigue as the Premier League season begins soon after.
