City reported back to training on July before Guardiola took his troops to the United States, although John Stones, Ilkay Gundogan and Phil Foden were missing after failing to meet entry requirements.

In the first of two friendlies in the US, the Blues beat Mexican side Club America in Houston with goals from Kevin De Bruyne although Haaland was missing as he works his way back to full fitness.

The Premier League title holders then defeated German giants Bayern Munich at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, with Haaland scoring on his non-competitive debut.

Guardiola's side then returned to England for the annual Community Shield curtain-raiser on July 30 against Liverpool.

Trent Alexander-Arnold opened the scoring for the Reds in the first half before Julian Alvarez sent in the equaliser with just 20 minutes left.

Mohamed Salah restored the Reds' lead in the 83rd minute when he fired into the corner from a penalty and Darwin Nunez then added another the dying moments of the match.

That contest will see them lock horns with FA Cup winners Liverpool once again, although the game will take place at the King Power Stadium in Leicester, not Wembley Stadium, due to the Women’s European Championship.

City have also revealed that they will be taking in a charity game against Barcelona on August 24 at Camp Nou, with that contest helping to raise funds for former Blaugrana goalkeeper and coach Juan Carlos Unzue - who was diagnosed with ALS in 2020.

Manchester City 2022-23 pre-season squad

Manchester City have had a blockbuster start to the summer transfer window as they managed to rope in Norwegian starlet Erling Haaland to the Etihad. Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich were among a host of top European clubs interested in signing the 21-year-old, but he chose City and completed his £51 million ($63m) from Borussia Dortmund.

The Cityzens did not have an out-and-out striker since Aguero left in 2021 and the forward is a perfect replacement for the City legend after scoring 85 goals in 88 appearances for Dortmund.

He watched Man City regularly growing up and follows in the footsteps of his father, Alf Inge, who joined City from Leeds exactly 22 years earlier.

They have also got onboard Kalvin Phillips after paying an initial £42 million ($52m) with another £3m ($3.7m) in add-ons. Phillips has signed a six-year contract at City, which will tie him to the Premier League champions until the summer of 2028.

He was one of the priority targets for City and with the departure of Fernandinho and the possible exit of Ilkay Gundogan, the holding midfield role needed reinforcement. He will fight for a starting XI berth with Rodri as the Spaniard is a crucial piece of Pep Guardiola's puzzle.

They have also signed Arminia Bielefeld goalkeeper Stefan Ortega as an understudy for Ederson.
