Manchester City’s Marc Guehi admits he is baffled by Liverpool fans booing him.
Guehi lined up against Arne Slot’s side in Sunday’s Premier League showdown and was audibly jeered by home supporters during the visitors’ eventual 2-1 victory.
The England international had been on the verge of joining the Reds last summer before Crystal Palace pulled the plug on the deadline day move at the eleventh hour.
He subsequently joined City in the January window for a £35 million deal, with the reigning Premier League champions not following up their original interest in him.
Speaking after the game, Guehi was at a loss at the reason for his hostile reception.
He said: “I’m not sure why, to be honest.
“But I can’t control what their fans think of me.
“I’m just grateful for our fans for sticking by me and supporting me the whole game.”
