Read in Catalan

Pep Guardiola has returned to the topic of Catalonia. On Monday, the day the sentences were announced, he made a first statement to the world on behalf of "Democratic Tsunami". Today, in his press conference before Manchester City's Premier League fixture against Crystal Palace this weekend, he was asked against about the prisoners, the situation in Catalonia and the postponing of El Clásico.

He talks about the "incredible" Marches for Liberty which arrived in Barcelona today, repeats the call he made on Monday for "people to sit and talk" and says the international community needs to help solve the conflict. "I have personal friends who will be nine years in jail for voting," he said.

As for the decision to postpone the match between Barça and Real Madrid originally scheduled for Saturday 26th October, he said he wouldn't comment on it, that they should ask the people from the Spanish Royal Football Federation responsible for the decision: "If they do it, it's because they're worried."
