DRONE WARS: Man City upset as mystery drone following Guardiola

Manchester City chiefs are upset with a rogue drone following manager Pep Guardiola.

The Daily Mail says City are increasingly miffed by some unwanted attention being dished out to Guardiola.

During last week's Carabao Cup visit of Chelsea, a rogue drone appeared above the technical area at the Etihad. Club security staff reported it to the fourth official, who in turn informed referee Simon Hooper.

Hooper had the option of pausing the game, but was not forced to do so because the drone disappeared.

Police were notified and the device in question was traced to a nearby estate, where a local man was arrested.

It is understood Wednesday night was not the first time the drone had appeared at the Etihad.
