Manchester City midfielder Nunes recently talked about his playing position on the field in an interview, and said that no matter what position the coach arranges him to play, he will try his best for the team.

In the third round of the 2026 Club World Cup, Manchester City coach Guardiola arranged Nunes as a defender, and Manchester City defeated Juventus 5-2 with goals from Doku, Haaland, Foden and Savio, and successfully entered the top 16. It is worth mentioning that Nunes assisted Haaland to score in the match against Juventus.

"No matter what position the coach puts me in, I will do my best," said the 16-year-old Nunez. "There are other players in the team who have played in different positions and have done well. So no matter what position the coach lets me play, I will do my best. That's exactly what I did in the last game, and I think I played well."

"I think the basic structure of the team has not changed. After all, some of the players in the team have been here for 10 years. Everyone knows what we should do in training and how the coach wants us to press and attack.

In addition, Manchester City will face Al-Hilal in the round of 16 of the Club World Cup, and Al-Hilal advanced to the round of 16 with a record of 1 win and 2 draws.

Nunes continued, "In different competitions, of course there will be different ways of playing and different requirements. But we are very familiar with everything now because we have been fighting side by side for a long time."
