Pep Guardiola's daughter Maria who once dated ex-Tottenham star shows off bikini bod for upcoming swimwear range in stunning photoshoot
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola's daughter, Maria, has turned a lot of heads on social media after flaunting off her bikini bod in a video for an up-and-coming swimwear brand.
Maria, 21, has developed a presence on social media as an influencer on Instagram with around 400,000 followers on the platform. The brunette, who recently turned blonde, recently modelled for a clothing range that caused quite a stir among her fan base.
According to The Sun, Maria appeared in a white bikini from iBilovesyou in one of her stories on Instagram. The Barcelona-born model briefly looks at the camera before turning away in the short video.
Earlier last year, Maria came into the spotlight when she was spotted with former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli. As per the aforementioned report, the pair were seen kissing each other at a rooftop bar in London. However, their relationship failed to last longer than six months, as Guardiola's daughter was dumped by Alli.
Since then, Alli has witnessed a decline in his career. After failing to impress under Antonio Conte, he was placed on the transfer list by the north London outfit. He joined Everton in January this year on a free transfer but failed to register a goal contribution in 13 games.
Last month, Alli joined Besiktas on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy. He has scored once in two Super Lig appearances for his new club so far this season.
Meanwhile, Maria is quite supportive of her father, as she has been pictured with her illustrious dad numerous times during trophy celebrations. Erling Haaland, who recently joined Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund for £51 million, is said to be her favourite player.
Manchester City are second in the Premier League standings with 17 points from seven games. Guardiola's side are atop their UEFA Champions League group with two wins in two, though.
The Cityzens will next be in action against city rivals Manchester United at the Etihad in the Premier League on October 2.
Pep Guardiola names his UEFA Champions League favourites
At a pre-match press conference earlier this month, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was asked about his UEFA Champions League favourites for the season.
He said (via Tribuna):
"I get asked every year. Sport always gives you another opportunity. They say we are favourites. But for me, Real Madrid have to be favourites every year."
Real Madrid lifted their record-extending 14th UEFA Champions League trophy last season after beating Liverpool 1-0 in the final in Paris.
