Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola must provide observations of his animated on-field discussion with Nathan Redmond to the FA.

Pep Guardiola has been asked to explain his version of events to the Football Association (FA) with regards to the post-match incident involving the Manchester City manager and Southampton winger Nathan Redmond on Wednesday.

After City's 2-1 on Wednesday, the Spanish coach walked over to the Saints winger and appeared to shout at the player and remonstrated with him.

Guardiola said after the game that he was telling the 23-year-old "how good a player he is" and Redmond has since spoken out, saying the Spaniard was "only very complimentary and positive".

The City boss has until Monday to respond.
