Guardiola brought the 22-year-old from Barcelona in a €25 million deal earlier this summer, and Magath believes that the decision will come back to hurt him.

Speaking to Sport1, Magath said: "In my view it's a problem that a Spanish coach has signed a Spanish player.

"If he plays, his teammates will think it's because of that. If he doesn't play, the fans will start asking about the transfer fee paid for him.

"It's situation that Guardiola could have saved himself."
