Manchester City have confirmed the arrival of two former Liverpool coaches as an addition to Pep Guardiola’s backroom team.

Jurgen Klopp’s former assistant Pepijn Lijnders moves to Manchester alongside set-piece coach, James French – who has spent the last 13 years at Anfield.

Their appointments comes after the exits of three members of Guardiola’s backroom team.

Lijnders, who worked under Brendan Rodgers and Klopp at Liverpool, left the club at the end of the 2023-24 season and left for the role as head coach of Red Bull Salzburg.

“Pepijn and James have each amassed huge experience working in their individual roles over the past few years,” City director of football Hugo Viana said.

“Their talent, application, work ethic and all-round commitment are totally aligned with the values that underpin how Pep wants football to be played.”

Guardiola’s team endured a disappointing 2024/25 campaign, finishing third in the Premier League and failing to win a trophy for the first time in eight years.

They will travel to the expanded 32-team Club World Cup in the United States as defending champions after winning the competition under its previous guise in Saudi Arabia two years ago.

The month-long tournament starts on June 14, with City opening their campaign against Moroccan club Wydad Casablanca in Philadelphia four days later.
