Manchester City teenager set to make senior team debut in the Carabao cup

Manchester City youngster Liam Delap was on the bench when Pep Guardiola’s side faced Wolves in their opener of the season earlier this week. And, now,  according to Daily Mail, the 17-year-old striker is all set to make his debut in the senior squad on Thursday when the club will face Bournemouth in the third round of Carabao Cup competition. Delap, along with the likes of Tommy Doyle, Felix Nmecha, Adrian Bernabe, Taylor Harwood-Bellis and Cole Palmer, is under ‘special consideration’ and could be named in the squad that will kickstart Man City’s EFL Cup campaign. On Monday, after victory over Wolves at Molineux, Pep Guardiola confirmed that he would rely on the City Academy graduates to represent the club in the competition on Thursday night, and reportedly sees Delap as one of his best options. "Against Bournemouth we will play mostly players in the academy and try to keep energy for the Premier League. With the lack of preparation and seven players out, we have to keep the players who played today as fresh as possible. We will see how the players recover. We won the Carabao Cup three times, and we want to win again, but we will have to see.” Source- Sports Illustrated Join us on Telegram!
