As well as duties on the pitch to prepare, there’s also the small matter of media obligations - including photos and videos for the broadcasters.

Rayan Cherki had his own photoshoot after moving to the No.10 shirt following Jack Grealish’s loan to Everton.

There were fresh beginnings for another attacking midfielder too, with James McAtee saying his farewells to the whole squad before heading off to Nottingham Forest for the next stage of his career.

As well as his team-mates, McAtee also had a chat with Hugo Viana and Pep Guardiola who wished him all the best at the City Ground.
