City Wanted Me Says Caballero

Malaga goalkeeper Willy Caballero has said that Manuel Pellegrini was very keen on bringing him to the Premier League.

Pellegrini moved to Manchester City from Malaga during this summer after Roberto Mancini was removed from his position. Goalkeeper Will Caballero has now said that Pellegrini tried to persuade him to follow him to the Premier League. 

The 31 year old has said that he turned down the opportunity because he did not know whether he would play ahead of current City goalkeeper Joe Hart. Caballero sogned a new contract to stay at Malaga until 2017 last week and looks destined to stay for some time.

“I talked with Manuel Pellegrini before he left Malaga,” Caballero said, quoted in The Sun.

“I knew of his intention to take me with him to Manchester City.”

“But I was unsure whether he would stick with the same keepers he had already.”
