On Twitter after the first day of Saturday, Romano said he was particularly enthusiastic about one of the new recruits of Manchester City.
Tijjani Reijnders drew the attention of the Pep Guardiola team by playing a key role in the 4-0 victory against the Wolves, but it was Rayan Cherki that the journalist specializing in transfers praised, he who made it possible to win a one-way victory.

Cherki only had a few minutes to shine for his debut in Manchester City, but he delivered an excellent performance.
At the end of the match, the former Lyonnais found the space at the entrance to the surface and marked its first league debut of a precise strike in the corner of the nets. Previously, he almost offered a decisive pass to Reijnders.
