Man City: Txiki Begiristain admits he’ll be supporting Manchester City as a fan now as one of the three clubs he follows from afar. Begiristain was Director of Football at the Blues for 13 years and an integral figure in their rise to becoming one of the biggest clubs in the world.
The 61-year-old now plans to spend plenty of time with his family after a long and distinguished career in the game. But he says when he does check out the football scores, City will be very much on his mind.
“I have three clubs!” he said to Man City's media team. "One is Sociedad, where I grew up, the second one is Barcelona, of course; and then it’s going to be City. I’ll see how I feel watching. I’m going to choose the right ones and just enjoy watching football. I’ve been watching the best football in the world – both at Barcelona and Manchester City - so I’ll choose only the good games!”
