Manchester City staged an emotional reunion between Pep Guardiola, 55, and young Braydon, a decade on from the viral video in which the two appeared together in a taxi.
Manchester City prepared an emotional farewell for Pep Guardiola, who left the team's technical bench after an almost perfect decade (2016-2026), during which he won 20 trophies, the most recent being the FA Cup and this season's League Cup.

Shortly before saying goodbye to the Etihad Stadium, the Catalan coach reunited with Braydon, the young Citizens supporter who went viral in 2016.
Back then, just a child, Braydon traveled alongside Guardiola in a taxi and asked the coach an optimistic question: “Where are we going to put all the trophies we win with you?”.
Ten years later, City's management organized the reunion of the two to provide the answer.

Braydon was called to Pep Guardiola's 'citizens' farewell party, was brought face to face with the manager, and he showed him City's trophy case.
The dozens of trophies won by the team under his guidance are on display there, bringing to a magnificent close a historic cycle that has cemented Manchester City's position in world football's elite.
I have regrets, because when you make many, many decisions, you also make mistakes. But there is one regret that I have hidden deep inside me for many years.
I didn't give Joe Hart the chance to be with me, to show me what a good goalkeeper he was. And I should have.
No because… all respect to Claudio, all respect to Ederson, who came in and was important…
– Pep Guardiola
