Rayan Cherki has left Pep Guardiola stunned. And it takes a lot to impress the Manchester City manager. The French forward caught his coach off guard by boxing.
Pep Guardiola still can’t believe it. Cherki the boxer — what a surprise. “Yes, on Instagram, he’s boxing. It surprised me, I didn’t expect that,” he said, half-serious, half-amused, before joking further: “I won’t argue with him anymore, he’ll play every match… it’s scary.”
A Surprising Talent Beyond Football
And for good reason. In the video shared by his coach, Cherki throws punches like someone who has always lived in the ring. Speed, precision, ease… the number 10 looks just as comfortable with gloves as he does with a ball.
In short, after “magic feet,” it might be time to add “supersonic fists” to his profile.
