After Manchester City's 3-1 pre-season victory over the K-League All-Stars, manager Maresca gave a post-match interview.

On the match

"Even though it was just a friendly, the result was still very important for us. This match also allowed us to assess how much progress the team has made."

"All the players who featured today are part of Manchester City. As long as they remain with the team, they will give their all. I was particularly pleased with Reijnders' performance."

Korean media question: Rumors about Semenyo

"There is plenty of speculation outside the club. The transfer window is still open, and I can't predict the final outcome, but if he stays with the team, I will fully support him."

The original Korean text is as follows

On incomplete roster

"Approximately 8 to 9 players did not participate in this Asian tour. Adapting to a new environment is crucial, but equally important is that the players are willing to trust and follow the direction I am pursuing for the team."

On high temperatures

"It's gratifying that everyone is trying to adapt to the harsh conditions. This is a process of mutual adjustment, and everyone must trust each other."
