EPL: Maresca confirms Man City’s two captains

Manchester City manager, Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Ruben Dias and Erling Haaland are his two captains.

Maresca has, however, said he wants to sign “a captain” before the end of the transfer window.

This summer, the likes of Bernardo Silva, John Stones, Nathan Aké and Rodri have left the Premier League club.

The exits of the quartet mean City have lost a lot of experience.

Maresca selected City’s youngest opening-day XI since 2008 in their 2-1 win over Bournemouth on Sunday, and the Italian is keen to bring in more leaders.

He said: “We have experienced players.

“For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
