City are believed to have refused to meet Sanchez’s wage demands amid concerns it could cause tension inside the dressing room.
And Guardiola has hinted Sanchez’s personality made him the wrong fit at the club by insisting he only wants to bring in ‘nice people’.
‘Whether players adapt depends on their quality and if they’re nice people,’ he said.
‘We’re looking for nice people to join us.
If it's good enough for Pep!
The 'nice' digs were boring all throughout the time Warne was manager, they're even more boring now he's gone.
