Guardiola’s wife, Cristina Serra, and the couple’s two
daughters, Valentina and Maria, are reported to have escaped
unharmed as did family members of other City staff who were also at
the Manchester Arena.

Both Manchester City and United have issued statements in the
wake of the atrocity, which killed 22 people. A support centre has
been set up at City’s stadium.

“Doctors, counsellors and bereavement officers are on hand at
the Etihad, while food and pharmaceutical supplies have been
provided by local businesses,” reports the Daily Mail.  

“Drinks, blankets and phone chargers are among the services on
offer to members of the public in the Chairman’s Club.”

Reports that Guardiola’s family were at the concert originated
in Spain, says the Daily Telegraph.

“It is unclear if they were still at the Manchester Arena when
the explosion occurred shortly after 10.30pm in the venue’s foyer
but it is understood that all three are safe and unhurt.

“Guardiola was due to fly to Abu Dhabi today for his end of
season review with Khaldoon al-Mubarak, the City chairman, and the
club’s hierarchy but it remains to be seen whether the manager will
now cancel or delay his planned visit in order to stay with his
family.”

Man United held a minute’s silence before training ahead of the
Europa League final on Wednesday. It also cancelled a planned press
conference. 

Man United and City issued statements expressing shock and
sympathy for the victims of the attack.

Meanwhile, the Manchester Evening News reports that
players and other stars with local connections including Marcus
Rashford, Vincent Kompany, David Beckham and boxers Ricky Hatton
and Anthony Crolla have posted messages of support on social
media.
