Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has revealed he is not in the Premier League club’s WhatsApp group because he does not use social media.
Guardiola, former Barcelona and Bayern Munich manager, disclosed this in a recent interview with Sky Sports.
He said: “I don’t like WhatsApp, this kind of stuff.
“So I have just one phone. No TikToks, no Twitters, no Instagram, nothing. Just my phone and messages, that’s all.”
Guardiola added that he is not averse to scrolling sometimes, though, when he gets the urge.
“Yeah, no, but when I want to, I go to my daughters and they allowed me to do it on their phones. So that’s how we do it,” the city head coach added.
Meanwhile, City will fight to avoid potential expulsion from the Premier League for financial breaches as sport’s “trial of the century” commenced on Monday.
Premier League champions City have been charged with 115 alleged breaches of the competition’s financial regulations.

City deny any wrongdoing and have said they have a “comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence” to clear their name.
But if they are found guilty, they could face a range of punishments, including a severe points penalty or even be kicked out of the Premier League.
Everton and Nottingham Forest were both hit by points deductions last season for single breaches of the league’s profit and sustainability rules.
With City winning eight league titles since 2012, including six of the last seven, a guilty verdict could prompt a slew of compensation claims from rival top-flight clubs.
City’s financial affairs have come under regular scrutiny since their takeover by Sheikh Mansour’s Abu Dhabi United Group in 2008.
If the verdict goes against City, there is potential for strained diplomatic relations between the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates, where Mansour is a deputy prime minister.
The hearing, which is not a court case, will be heard by an independent commission and could take 10 weeks to complete, according to AFP.
